111 presenting the initial number of the " Gazetteer and Directory 
of Genesee County " to the public, the publisher desires to 
return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted 
in obtaining the valuable information which it contains, and with- 
out whose aid it would have been impossible to collect, in the brief 
space of time in which it is essential that all such works should be 
completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of 
the Republican Advocate, Progressive Batavian, Spirit of the Times, 
Batavia-; and LeRoy Gazette, LeEoy, for the uniform kindness 
which has been evinced in calling public attention to the au- 
thor's efforts ; and to the following persons, viz., D. C. Rumsey, 
School Commissioner; A. D. Lord, Superintendent of State Insti- 
tution for the Blind, and R. McWilliams, Deputy Collector Internal 
Revenue, Batavia, for essential aid in furnishing material for the 
work. Many othei's in various sections of the County have kindly 
volunteered their aid, to all of whom we return sincere thanks. 

The following works were consulted in its preparation : 
" French's Gazetteer of the State of New York ; " " Turner's Pio- 
neer History of the Holland Purchase;" " Hammond's Political 
History of the State of New York ; " " Hotchkin's History of the 
Presbyterian Church in Western New York ; " " Census Reports 
of 1865 ; " " Proceedings of" Board of Supervisors for 1868," and 
(' Sketches of Batavia," by Wm. Seaver. 

That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names 
and dates as are here given, is probable, and that names have been 
omitted that should have been inserted is quite certain. We can 
only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence and 
care in this difficult and complicated feature of book-making. To 
such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or omission, we beg 
pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as 
had been observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and 
which are noted in the Errata, on page 223. 



INTBODUGTION. 



It is also suggested that our patrons observe and become familiar 
with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory. 

The Map of the County was engraved with great care by 
Messrs. "Weed, Parsons & Co.," of Albany, and, it is believed, will '' 
prove a valuable acquisition to the work. 

The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men 
and firms of the County, and also many enterprising and reliable 
dealers in other parts of the State. We most cheerfully commend 
them all to the patronage of those under whose observation these 
pages may come. 

With thanks to friends generally, we leave our work to secure 
the favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating 
business public.

J. A. Clark, dealer in Clocks, 
Watches, Jewelry, Cutlery and Fancy 
Goods, No. 90 Main St., Batavia, N. Y., ad- 
vertises on colored page 225. This is one of 
the best furnished stores to be found in the 
State, outside of the large cities, and is 
equaled by but few anywhere. It is, in 
fact, a first-class store as to goods and gen- 
eral fitting up, and any one in want of any 
article usually kept in such a store will find 
Ivlr. Clark ready to furnish it on as reason- 
able terms as any dealer in the State. Cus- 
tomers can rely on getting the quality of 
goods they bargain for. Call and see. 

Alvin li. Briggs, whose card ap- 
pears ou page 16, is a young artist of prom- 
ise. He has already had quite extensive 
experience in painting landscapes from na- 



ture, while as a copyist he has few supe- 
riors. We have no hesitation in recom- 
mending our friends to engage pictures of 
him. The only fault we know of to be 
found with him, is, that his prices are so 
low as to cause complaint among other 
artists. 

■W. S. BroTvn & Co., Carriage 
Makers, at LeRoy, N. Y., can supply citi- 
zens of Western New York with eleoant 
and substantial work in their line. They 
employ experienced workmen and use the 
best of seasoned timber and the finest 
Qualities of iron in their manufactures. 
Citizens of Genesee Co. should patronize 
home industries bv selecting their Buggies, 
Wagons, or Cutters of this firm. See card,

stitution August 2, 1819, and was admitted into the Union December 
14 of the same year. Area 50,722 square miles, or 32,462,080 acres. — 
Population in 1860, 964,201, of whom 435,080 were slaves. It is the chief 
cotton growing State of the Union. White male citizens who have re- 
sided one year in the State and three months in the county, are entitled 
to vote. An election for a Convention was tield December 24, 1860, 
and a majority of over 50,000 votes cast for secession ; the Convention 
met Januaiy 7, 1861, and on the 11th passed the ordinance of secession, by 
a vote of 61 to 39, which was followed on the 21st by the resignation of 
its members of Congress. 

^:%jS'i;?lJ\/'S^S was settled at Arkansas Post in 1685, by the French, 
and was part of the Louisiana purchase ceded by France to the United

consisted in a clause abolishing slavery. The Convention adjourned 
Januaiy 22. This body also inaugurated a Provisional Government. 
The Constitution was submitted to the people, and 12,177 votes cast for it, 
to 226 against it. The State was re-organized under the plan, contained 
in the Amnesty Proclamation of President Lincoln, in pursuance of 
which an election was held March 14, 1864. The vote required under the 
Proclamation was 5,405. About 16,000 votes were cast.

CAI^IJFO'RjyiA. was settled at Diego in 1768, by Spaniards, and was 
part of the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico, by the treaty 
concluded at Guadaloupe Hidalgo, February 32,1848. After several inef- 
fectual attempts to organize it as a Territory or admit it as a State, a 
law was passed by Congress for the latter purpose, which was approved 
September 9, 1850. Area 188,981 square miles, or 120,947,784 acres.

tans from Massachusetts, and continued under the jurisdiction of that Prov- 
ince until April 23, 1663, when a separate charter was granted, which con- 
tinued in force until a Constitution was formed, September 15, 1818. It was 
one of the original thirteen States, and ratified the United States Con- 
stitution, January 9, 1788. Area 4,674 square miles, or 2,991,360 acres. 
Population in 1860, 460,147. It is one of the most densely populated 
and principal manufacturing States in the Union. Residence for six 
months, or military duty for a year, or payment of State tax, or a free- 
hold of the yearly value of seven dollars, gives the right to vote. 

^BZAJrA^B y^2& settled at Wilmington, early in 1638, by Swedes 
and Finns ; was granted to William Penn, in 1682, and continued under 
the government of Pennsylvania until the adoption of a Constitution,

fruit growing State, with some extensive manufactories. Residence in 
the State one year, and ten days in the election district, with payment 
of a State or county tax assessed ten days prior to an election, gives the 
right to vote, except that citizens between twenty-one and twenty-two 
years of age need not have paid the tax. 

Ifl/O^I^'A. was settled at St. Augustine, in 1565, by Spaniards ; was 
formed from part of the territory ceded by Spain to the United States 
by treaty of February 22, 1819; an act to authorize the President to 
establish a temporary government was passed March 3, 1819; articles 
of surrender of East Florida were framed July 10, and of West Florida, 
July 17, 1821, and it was then taken possession of by General Jackson 
as Governor. An act for the establishment of a Territorial Govern- 
ment was passed March 30, 1823, and by act of March 3, 1823, EmsI and 
West Florida were constituted one Territory. Acts to establish its 
boundary line between Georgia and Alabama were passed May 4, 1826,

the whites. It is the principal rice-growing State. Whites, who have re- 
sided in the State two years and district six months, and have a freehold 
of fifty acres of land, or have paid a State tax, are entitled to vote. De- 
cember 17, 1860, a Convention assembled in Columbia, adjourned to 
Charleston, and on the 24th unanimously adopted an ordinance of seces- 
sion, which was followed the next day by a Declaration of Causes claimed 
to be sufllcient to justify the act. An election for delegates to a State Con- 
vention was held September 4, 1865. The Convention assembled Sep- 
tember 13, and adjourned on the 28th. It repealed the ordinance of seces- 
sion, abolished slavery, equalized the representation of the Senate and 
taxation throughout the State, giving the election of Governor and Presi- 
dential electors to the people, ordered voting in the Legislature by mm 
voce, endorsed the Administration unanimously, and directed a commis- 
sion to submit a code to the Legislature for the protection of the colored 
population. The Legislature ratified the Constitutional Amendment No- 
vember 13, 1865.

nessee, which had declared against separation by a vote of 33,933 to 14,780, 
they, in a Convention held at Greenville, June' 18-31, repudiated it. An- 
drew Johnson, Provisional Governor of the State, called a State Conven- 
tion to be held in Nashville the second Monday in ;| January. Delegates

ted to grain, cotton and tropical fruits. Free white male citizens of 31 
years of age, who have resided in the State one year and district six 
months are entitled to vote. A Convention assembled at Galveston Jan- 
tiary 38,1861, and on February 1 passed an ordinance of secession, by a 
vote of 166 to 7, to be submitted to the people February 33, and on March 
4 they declared the State out of the Union, and Gov. Houston issued a 
Proclamation to that effect.

chiefly under grants from New Hampshire ; was formed from a part of 
the territory of New York, by act of its Legislature March 6, 1769 ; framed 
a Constitution December 35, 1777, and was admitted into the Union 
March 4, 1791, by virtue of an act of Congress passed February 18 of the 
same year. Area 10,313 square miles, or 6,535,680 acres. Population in 
1860, 315,098. It is a grazing region, producing more wool, live stock,

any other State. Any citizen of the United States who has resided in the 
State one year, and will take the oath of allegiance, is entitled to vote.

organized a Provisional Government. On th.e 36th of November 18- . , a 
Convention representing the western counties assembled in Wheeling aiad 
framed a Constitution for West Virginia, which was submitted to the 
people on the 3d of May, 1863, and adopted by them by a nearly uram- 
mous vote. The division of the State was sanctioned by the Legislaaire 
May 13, 1863, and ratified by Congress by an act approved December _ol, 
1863, conditioned on the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution 
providing for the gradual abolition of slavery, which was done on the 34th 
of March, 1863, by a vote of the qualified electors of the proposed State,

igan December 34, 1834, and was organized iuto a Territory April .;30, 
1836. Iowa was set off from it June 13, 1838, and acts were passed at 
various times setting its boundaries. March 3, 1847, an act for its admis- 
sion into the Union was passed, to take effect on the issuing of a Procla- 
mation by the President, and by act of May 39, 1848, it was admitted mto

against such extension, therefore, the section of said law conferring such 
right had been constitutionally adopted and is the law of the land. 



THE TERRITORIES, 

THEIR BOUNDAEIBS, AREA, PHYSICAL FEATURES, ETC. 



^dZ-AS^A, our new territory, recently purchased of Kussia, compre- 
hends all the north-west coast on the Pacific, and the adjacent islands north 
of the parallel of 50 degrees 40 minutes north, and the portion of the main- 
land west of the meridian (about 140° west) of Mount St. Elias. The area 
is computed at 481,276 square miles. The climate, although warmer than 
in the same latitude on the eastern coast, is too rigorous to admit of suc- 
cessful agricultural operations, and the chief value of the country and ad- 
j acent seas is derived from flieir fisheries and hunting grounds. The south- 
ern and central portions are mountainous ; the northern portion along the 
Arctic ocean is quite flat, nowhere rising more than fifteen or twenty feet 
above the sea. The po"pulation is estimated at about 80,000, mostly Esqui- 
meaux. 

A^IZOJVA. was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, in the win- 
ter of 1863, out of the western half of New Mexico, the boundary between 
the two Territories being the 109th meridian (32dwest from Washington,) 
and includes the greater portions of the valleys of Colorado and Gila, 
which two rivers drain its entire surface, with parts of Utah, New Mexico 
and Nevada, and yet convey, it is reported, a less volume of water to the 
sea than the Hudson at Albany. The fertile Messilla Valley was left with 
New Mexico. The Territory forms a block nearly square, and contains 
126,141 square miles, or 80,730,240 acres. Its white population is probably 
considerably less than 10,000. For agricultm-al purposes it is probably 
the most worthless on the Continent, owing to the absence of rains, but it 
is reputed to abound in silver mines. 

^<9Z^^::^»4^<9 was organized March 2, 1861, from parts of Kansas, 
Nebraska and Utah, and is situated on each side of the Rocky Mountains, 
between latitude 37" and 41°, and longitude 25° and 32° west from Wash- 
ington. Area 104,500 square miles, or 66,880,000 acres. Population 50,- 
000, besides numerous tribes of Indians. By an enabling act passed March 
21, 1864, the people of the Territory were authorized to frame a State Con- 
stitution and organize a State Government, and a Convention accordingly 
met in 1865, and on the 12th of August adopted a Constitution, which was 
submitted to and adopted by the people September 5, and State officers 
elected November 14. A bill to admit the Territory as a State passed 
Congress, but was vetoed May 25, 1866. It is said to be a superior graz- 
ing and cattle producing region, with a healthy climate and rich soil. 
An extensive coal bed, and also gold, iron and other miaerais abound. 



TRE TERRITORIES, THEIR BOUNDARIES, ETC. 33 

!2>AJ!'0TA. was first settled by emyloyees of the Hudson Bay Com- 
pany, but is now being peopled by emigrants from the Northern and Wes- 
tern States. It was set off from the western portion of Minnesota when 
that Territory became a State in 1857, and was organized March ^, 1861. 
Area 148,932 square miles, or 95,316,480 acres. Population 2.576 whites, 
and 2,261 Indians, besides the roving tribes. 

I^ASO was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, at its second 
session, in the winter of 1863. Its name means 'Bead of the Mountains,' 
and it embraces the whole breadth of the Rocky Mountain region, and has 
within its bounds the head waters of nearly all the great rivers that flow 
down its either slope, but the greater portion lies east of the mountains. 
Its southern boundary is the 41st, its northern the 46th parallel of latitude. 
It extends from the 104th meridian on the east to the 110th on the west. 
Area 326,373 square rdiles, or 208,870,72*0 acres. For agricultural purposes 
it is comparatively worthless, but abounds in gold and other valuable 
mines. 

MOJVT^JVpi. was settled by emigrants from the Northern and "West- 
ern States. Organized in 1864, with the following boundaries: Com- 
mencing at a point formed by the intersection of the 27° L. W. from Wash- 
ington with the 45" N. L. ; thence due west on said 45th degree to a point 
formed by its intersection with the 34th degree W. from Washington ; 
thence due south along said 34th degree of longitude to its intersection 
with the 44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L. ; thence due' west along said 
44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L. to a point formed by its intersection 
with the crest of the Rocky Mountains ; thence following the crest of the 
Rocky Mountains northward till its intersection with the Bitter Root 
Mountains ; thence northward along the crest of said Bitter Root Moun- 
tains to its intersection with the 39th degree of longitude W. from Wash- 
ington; thence along said 39th degree of longitude northward to the 
boundary line of the British possessions; thence eastward along said 
boundary to the 27th degree of longitude W. from Washington ; thence 
southward along said 27th degree to the place of beginning. This makes 
it the northermost Territory next the States east of the Missouri Valley. It 
is a good mining and agricultural region. The total population is put 
down at 15,822. Large accessions have been made since the census was 
taken. 

jy^yy MEXICO was formed from a part of the territory ceded to 
the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guadaloupe Hidalgo, Feb- 
ruary 2, 1848, and was organized into a Territory September 9, 1850. — 
Area 121,201 square miles, or 77,568,640 acres. Population 83,000, besides 
large tribes of warlike Indians. The principal resource of the country is 
its minerals. 

IT2'ji.Sy^2& settled by the Mormons, and was fcymed from a part of 
the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guada- 
loupe Hidalgo, February 2, 1848, and was organized into a Territory, Sep- 
tember 9, 1850. Area, 106,383 square miles, or 68,084,480 acres. Popula- 
ton, 40,273, of whom 29 were slaves. Brine, sulphureous and chalybeate 
springs abound ; limestone, granite, sandstone and marble are found in 
large quantities ; iron is abundant, and gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc 
have been found. Not one-fiftieth part of the soil is fit for tillage, but on 
that which is, abundant crops of grain and considerable cotton are raised. 
A Convention was held at Great Salt Lake City, January 22, 1862, and a 
State Constitution formed, but it has not been acted on, l^ Congress. 

'Wi±SSIJ\rGTOJ\ry^z& settled by emigrants from the Northern and 
Western States, and was organized into a Territory , March 3, 1853, from the 
northern portion of Oregon, to which was added another portion from the

eastern part wlien the latter Territory was admitted as a State, February 
14, 1859. Area 69,994 square miles, or 48,636,800 acres. Population 
11,168, besides numerous tribes of Indians. 

If'TOMIJVG was organized in July 1868. It lies between the 27th and 
34th meridians of longitude west from Washington, and between the 
41st and 45th parallels of latitude. The Territory is rich in mineral wealth, 
having large quantities of iron, coal, gypsum and building stone, besides 
vast quantities of gold, silver and copper. Salt springs of great value are 
found within its limits. The western portion of the Territory embraces 
what is generally known as the " Sweet Water Mines." The climate is 
healthy, and the Territory is rapidly filling up with an enterprising and 
hardy population. The act of Congress organizing the Territory, provides 
that " There shall be no denial of the elective franchise or any other right, 
on account of color or race, and all persons shall be equal before the law."

States Government of claims

erty lost in the service,. exempt. 

CANCELLATION. 

In all cases where an adhesive stamp is 
used for denoting the stamp duty upon an 
instrument, the person using or affixing the 
same must write or imprint thereupon in 
ink the initials of his name, and the date 
(the year, month, and day) on which the 
same is attached or used. Each stamp 
should be separately cancelled. When 
stamps are printed upon checks, &c., so 
that in filling up the instrument, the face of 
the stamp is and must necessarily be writ- 
ten across, no other cancellation wUl be re- 
quired. ^,„.^ 

All cancellation must be distinct aiTd legi- 
ble, and except in thx? case of proprietary 
stamps from priva+e'^iiies, no method of 
cancellation which differs frflpi tha^t above 
described can be recogniiieeiTias l«iS(ft}oani ■ 
sufficient. .^,, ,. 

PENALTIES. 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who makes, signs, or issues, 
or who causes to be made, signed, or issu- 
ed, any paper of any kind or description 
whatever, or who accepts, iiegotiates, or 
pays, or causes to be accepted, negotiated, 
or paid, any bill of exchange, draft, or or- 
der, or promissory note, for the payment of 
money, without the same being duly stamp- 
ed, or having thereupon an adiesive stamp 
ff)r denoting the tax chargeable thereon, 
cancelled in the manner required by law, 
with intent to evade the provisions of the 
revenue act. 

A penalty of two hundred dollars is im- 
posed upon every person who pays, nego- 
tiates, or ofters in payment, or receives or 
takes in payment, any bill of exchange or 
order for the payment of any sum of money 
drawn or purporting to be drawn in a for- 
eign country, but payable in the United 
States, until the proper stamp has been af- 
fixed thereto. 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who fraudulently makes use 
of an adhesive stamp to denote the duty re- 
quired by the revenue act, without eflectu- 
ally cancelling and obliterating the same in 
the manner required by law. 

Attention is particularly called to the fol- 
lowing extract from section 155, of the act 
of June 30, 1864, as amended by the act of 
July 13, 1866 : 

"If any person shall wilfully remove or 
cause to be removed, alter or cause to be al- 
tered, the cancelling or defacing marks on 
any adhesive stamp, with intent to use the 
same, or to cause the use of the same, after 
it shall have been used once, or shall know- 
ingly or wilfully sell or buy such washed 
or restored stamps, or offer the same for 
gale, or give or expose the same to any per- 



38 



STAMP DUTIES. 



son for use, or knowingly use the same or 
prepare the same with intent for the fur- 
ther use thereof, or if any person shall 
knowingly and without lawful excuse (the 
proof whereof shall lie on the person accus- 
ed) have in his possession any washed, re- 
stored, or altered stamps, which have been 
removed from any vellum, parchment, pa- 
per, instrument or writing ; then, and in 
every such case, every person so offending, 
and every person knowingly and wilfully 
aiding, abetting, or assisting in committing 
any such offence as aforesaid, shall, on con- 
viction thereof, * * * be punished by 
a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, 
or by imprisonment and confinement to 
hard labor not exceeding five years, or both, 
at the discretion of the court." 

It is not lawful to record any instrument, 
document, or paper required by law to be 
stamped, or any copy thereof, unless a 
stamp or stamps of the proper amount have 
been afllxed and cancelled in the manner 
required by law ; and such instrument or 
copy and the record thereof are utterly null 
and void, and cannot be used or admitted as 
evidence in any court until the defect has 
been cured as provided in section 158. 

All willful violations of the law should be 
reported to the United States District Attor- 
ney within and for the district where they 
are committed. 

GENERAL EBMARKS. 



Revenue stamps may be used indiscrimi- 
nately upon any of the matters or things 
enumerated in Schedule B, except proprie- 
tary and playiu]^ card stamps, for which a 
special use has oeen provided. 

Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- 
ment of the duty chargeable on instn.i- 
ments. 

The law does not designate which of the 
parties to an instrument shall famish the 
necessary stamp, nor does the Commission- 
er of Internal Revenue assume to determine 
that it shall be supplied by one party rather 
than by another ; but if an instrument sub- 
ject to stamp duty is issued without having 
the necessary stamps affixed thereto, it can- 
not be recorded, or admitted, or used in ev- 
idence, in any court, until a legal stamp or 
stamps, denoting the amount of tax, shall 
have been affixedTas prescribed by law, and 
the person who thus issues it is liable to a 
penalty, if he omits the stamps with an in- 
tent to evade the provisions of the internal 
revenue act. 

The first act imposing a stamp tax upon 
certain specified instruments took effect, so 
far as said tax is concerned, October 1, 1862. 
The impression which seems to prevail to 
some extent, that no stamps are required 
upon any instruments issued in the States 
lately in insurrection, prior to the surren- 
der, or prior to the establishment of collec- 
tion districts there, is erroneous. 

Instruments issued in those States since 
October 1, 1863. are subject to the same tax- 
es as similar ones issued at the same time 
in the other States. 

No stamp is necessary upon an instrument 
executed prior to October 1, 1862, to make 



it admissible in evidence, or to entitle it to 
record. 

Certificates of loan in which there shall 
appear' any written or printed evidence of 
an amount of money to he paid on demand, 
or at a time designated, are subject to stamp 
duty as "promissory notes." 

When two or more persons join in the ex- 
ecution of an instrument, the stamp to which 
the instrument is liable under the law, may 
be affixed and cancelled by cither of them ; 
and "when more than one signature is affix- 
ed to the same paper, one or more stamps 
may be affixed thereto, representing' the 
whole amount of the stamp required for 
su-Ch signatures." 

No stamp is required on any warrant of 
attorney accompanying a bond or note, 
when such bond or note has affixed thereto 
the stamp or stamps denoting the duty re- 
quired ; arid, whenever any bond or note is 
secured by mortgage, but one stamp duty is 
required on such papers — such stamp duty 
being the highest rate required for such in- 
struments, or either of them. In such case 
a note or memorandum of the value or de- 
nomination of the stamp affixed should be 
made upon the margin or in the acknowl- 
edgement of the instrument which is not 
stamped. 

Particular attention is called to the 
change in section 154, by striking out the 
words "or used ;" the exemption thereun- 
der is thus restricted to documents, &c., 
issued by the officers therein named. Also 
to the changes in sections 152 and 158, by 
inserting the words "and cancelled in the 
manner required by law." 

The acceptor or acceptors of any bill of 
exchange, or order for the payment of any 
sum of money, drawn or purporting to be 
drawn in any foreign country, but payable 
in the United States, must, before paying or 
accepting the same, place thereupon a 
stamp indicating the duty. 

It is only upon conveyances of realty sold 
that conveyance stamps are necessary. A 
deed of real estate made without valuable 
consideration need not be stamped as a 
conveyance ; but if it contains covenants, 
such, for instance, as a covenant to warrant 
and defend the title, it should be stamped 
as an agreement or contract. 

When a deed purporting to be a convey-, 
ance of realty sold, and stamped according- 
ly, is inoperative, a deed of confirmation, 
made simply to cure the defect, requires no 
stamp. In such case, the second deed 
should contain a recital of the facts, and 
should show the reasons for its execution. 

Partition deeds between tenants in com- 
mon, need not be stamped as conveyances, 
inasmuch as there is no sale of realty, but 
merely a marking out, or a defining, of the 
boundaries of the part belonging to each ; 
but where money or other valuable consid- 
eration is paid by one co-tenant to another 
for equality of partition, there is a sale to 
the extent of such consideration, and the 
conveyance, by the party receiving it, 
should be stamped accordingly. 

A conveyance of lands sold for unpaid 
taxes, issued since August 1, 1866, by the 
officers of any county, 4own, or other mu- 



STAMP BUTLES. 



39 



nicipal corporation in tlie discharge of their 
strictly official duties, is exempt from 
stamp tax. 

A conve5'ance of realty sold, subject to a 
mortgage, should be stamped according to 
the consideration, or the value of the prop- 
erty unencumbered. The consideration in 
such case is to be found by adding the 
amount paid for the equity of redemption 
to the mortgage debt. The fact that one 
part of the consideration is paid to the 
mortgagor and the other part to the mort- 
gagee does not change the liability of the 
conveyance. 

The stamp tax upon a mortgage is based 
upon the amount it is given to secure. The 
fact that the value of the property mortgag- 
ed is less than that amount, and that conse- 
quently the security is only partial, does 
not change the liability of the instrument. 
When, therefore, a second mortgage is giv- 
en to secure the payment of a sum of mon- 
ey partially secured by a prior mortgage up- 
on other property, or vfhen two mortgages 
upon separate property are given at the 
same time to secure the payment of the 
sime sum, each should be stamped as 
though it were the only one. 

A mortgage given to secure a surety from 
loss, or given for any purpose whatever, 
other than as security for the payment of a 
definite and certain sum of money, is taxa- 
able only as an agreement or contract. 

The stamp duty upon a lease, agreement, 
memorandum, or contract for the hire, use, 
or rent of any land, tenement, or portion 
thereof, is based upon the annual rent or 
rental value of the property leased, and the 
duty is the same whether the lease be for 
one year, for a term of years, or for the 
fractional part of a year only. 

Upon every assignment or transfer of a 
mortgage, a stamp tax is required equal to 
that imposed upon a mortmge for the 
amount remaining unpaid ; this tax is re- 
quired upon every such transfer in writing, 
whether there is a sale of the mortgage or 
not ; but no stamp is necessary upon the 
endorsement of a negotiable instrument, 
even though the legal effect of such indorse- 
ment is to transfer a mortgage by which 
the instrument is secured. 

An assignment of a lease within the mean- 
ing and intent of Schedule B, is an assign- 
ment of the leaMhold, or of some portion 
thereof, by the lessee^ or by some person 
claiming by, from, or under him ; such an 
assignment as subrogates the assignee to 
the rights, or some portion of the rights, of 
the lessee, or of the person standing in his 
place. A transfer by the lessor of his part 
of a lease, neither giving nor purporting 
to give a claim to the leasehold, or to any 
part thereof, but simply a right to the rents, 
&c., is subject to stamp tax as a contract 
or agreement only. 

The stamp tax upon a Are insurance 
policy is based upon the premium. 

Deposit notes taken by a mutual fire in- 
surance company, not as payment of pre- 
mium nor as evidence of indebtedness 
therefor, but to be used simply as a basis 
upon which to make rateable assessments to 
meet the losses incurred by the company, 



should not be reckoned as premium in de- 
termining the amount of stamp taxes upon 
the policies. 

When a policy of insurance properly 
stamped has been issued and lost, no stamp 
is necessary upon another issued by the 
same company to the same party, covering 
the same property, time, &c., and designed 
simply to supply the loss. The second 
policy should recite the loss of the first. 

An instrument which operates as the re- 
newal of a jiolicy of insurance, is subject to 
the same stamp tax as the policy. 

When a policy of insurance is issued for 
a certain time, whether it be for one year 
only or for a term of years, a receipt for 
premium, or any other instrument which 
has the legal effect to continue the contract 
and extend its operation beyond that time, re- 
quires the same amount of revenue stamps 
as the .policy itself; but such a receipt as 
is usually given for the payment of the 
monthly, quarterly, or annual premium, is 
not a renewal within the meaning of the 
statute. The payment simply prevents the 
policy from expirin^g, by reason of non-per- 
formance of its conditions : a receipt given 
for such a payment requires a two-cent 
stamp, if the amount received exceeds 
twenty dollars, and a two-cent stamp only. 
When, however, the time of payment has 
passed, and a tender of the prenaium is not 
BuiHcient to bind the company, but a new 
policy or a new contract in some form, with 
the mutuality essential to every contract, 
becomes necessary between the insurer and 
the insured, the same amount of stamps 
should be used as that required upon the 
original policy. 

A permit issued by a life insurance com- 
pany changing the terms of a policy as to 
travel, residence, occupation, <kc., should 
be stamped as a contractor agreement. 

A bill single or a bill obligatory, i. e., an 
instrument in the form of a promissory 
note, under seal, is subject to stamp duty 
as written or printed evidence of an amount 
of money to be paid on demand or at a 
time designated, at the rate of five cents 
for each one hundred dollars or fractional 
part thereof. 

A waiver of protest, or of demand and 
notice, written upon negotiable paper and 
signed by the indorser, is an agreem^t, 
and requires a flve-cent stamp. 

A stamp duty of twenty-live cents is im- 
posed upon the "protest of every note, bill 
of exchange, check or draft," and upon 
every marine protest. If several notes, 
bills of exchange, drafts, &c., are protest- 
ed at the same time and all attached to one 
and the same certificate, stamps should be 
affixed to the amount of twenty-five cents 
for each note, bill, draft, &c., thus protest- 
ed. 

When, as is g^g^ally the case, the cap- 
tion to a depositi^^coutaius other certifi- 
cates in addition to the jurat to the affida- 
vit of the deponent, such as a certificate 
that the parties were or were not notified, 
that they did or did not appear, that they 
did or did not object, &c., it is subject to 
a stamp duty of five cents. 

When an attested copy of a writ or other 



40 



STAMP DUTIES. 



process is used by a sheriflf or other person 
in making personal service, or in attaching 
property, a five-cent stamp should be aflix- 
ed to the certificate of attestation. 

A marriage certificate issued by the ofll- 
ciating clergyman or magistrate, to be re- 
turned to any ofBicer of a State, county, city, 
town, or other municipal corporation, to 
constitute part of a public record, requires 
no stamp ; but if it is to be retained by 
the parties, a five-cent stamp should be af- 
fixed. 

The stamp tax upon a bill of sale, by 
which any ship or vessel, or any part there- 
of, is conveyed to or vested in any other 
person or persons, is at the same rate as 
that imposed upon conveyances of realty 
sold ; a bill of sale of any other personal 
property should be stamped as a contract 
or agreement. 

An assignment of real or personal prop- 
erty, or of both, for the benefit of creditors, 
should be stamped as an agreement or con- 
tract. 

Written or printed assignments of agree- 
ments; bonds, notes not negotiable, and 
of all other instruments the assignments 
of which are not particularly specified in 
the foregoing schedule, should be stamped 
as agreements. 

No stamp is necessary upon the registry 
of a judgment, even though the registry is 
such in its legal effect as to create a lien 
which operates as a mortgage ,upon the 
property of the judgment debtor. 

When a "power of attorney or proxy for 
voting at any election for officers of any 
incorporated company or society, except 
religious, charitable, or literary societies, 
or public cemeteries," is signed by sever- 
al stockholders, owning separate and dis- 
tinct shares, it is, in its legal effect, the 
separate instrument of each, and requires 
stamps to the amount of ten cents for each 
and every signature; one or more stamps 
may be used representing the whole amount 
required. 



A notice from landlord to tenant to 
quit possession of premises requires no 
stamp. 

A stamp tax is imposed upon every 
"manifest for custom-house entry or clear- 
ance of the cargo of any ship, vessel, or 
steamer for a foreign port." The amount 
of this tax in each case depends upon the 
registered tonnage of the vessel. 

If a vessel clears in ballast and has no 
cargo whatever, no stamp is necessary; 
but if she has any, however small the amount 
— a stamp should be used. 

A bond to convey real estate requires 
stamps to the amount of twenty-five cents. 

The stamp duty upon the probate of a 
will, or upon letters of administration, is 
based upon the sworn or declared value of 
all the estate and effects, real, personal, 
and mixed, undiminished by the debts of 
the estate for or in respect of which such 
probate or letters are applied for. 

When the property belonging to the es- 
tate of a person deceased, lies under dif- 
ferent jurisdictions and it becomes neces- 
sary to take out letters in two or more 
places, the letters should be stamped ac- 
cording to the value of all the property, real, 
personal, and mixed, for or in respect of 
which the particular letters in each case 
are issued. 

Letters de bonis non should be stamped 
according to the amount of property re- 
maining to be administered upon thereun- 
der, regardless of the stamps upon the orig- 
inal letters. 

A mere copy of an inatrament is not sub- 
ject to stamp duty unless it is a certified 
one, in which case a five-cent stamp should 
be affixed to the certificate of the person 
attesting it : but when the instrument is 
executed and issued in duplicate, triplicate, 
&c., as in the case of a lease of two or more 
parts, each part has the same legal effect as 
the other, and each should be stamped as 
an original.

The recent postal treaty with Great Britain provides that besides letters and nevpspa- 
pers, "book packets," and '-packets of patterns and samples," may be sent. Such 
packets — 

1. Must contain no writing. 

2. Must be fully prepaid (6 cents per 4 ounces from the U. S. , or 3 pence sterling from 
Great Britain.) 

3. Must be open at the ends to allow inspection. 

Samples of merchandise must not be of intrinsic value. 

dutiable articles— books, music, &c., sent from Great Britain to the United States, 
must, in addition to the postage, pay the regular duties, which are— On books and 
engravings, 25 per cent.; music and photographs, 20 per cent. 

If letters or articles sent to Italy are not prepaid, or are insnfflciently paid, they will 
be charged with deficient postage, and subject to fine, on arrival at their destination.

EVLE8 FOB DETECTING COUNTERFEIT BANK NOTES. 



Infallible Kules for Detecting Counterfeit or 
Spurious Bank Notes. 



Rule Ist.— Examine the shading of the 
letters in title of Bank called lathewobk, 
which in genuine notes presents an even, 
straight, light and silky appearance, gen- 
erally so fine and smooth as to appear to be 
all in one solid, pale body. In the counter- 
feit the lines are coarse and irregular, and 
in many of the longer lines breaks will be 
perceived, thus presenting a very inferior 
finish in comparison to genuine work. 

2d. — Observe the dies, circles and ovals 
in the genuine; they are composed of a 
network of lines, which, by crossing each 
other at certain angles, produce an endless 
variety of figures ; see the one cent stamp 
ATTACHED. The fine line alone is the 
iinit which enables you to detect spurious 
work. In the counterfeit, the represented 
white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross 
each other in a confused, irregular manner, 
thus producing blurred and imperfect 
figures. 

3d.— Examine the form and features of 
all human figures on the note. In the gen- 
uine, the texture of the skin is represented 
by fine dots and lines intermixed. In the 
eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the 
white clearly seen ; the nose, mouth and 
chin, well formed, natural and expressive ; 
the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin 
well thrown out ; and the delicate shading 
of the neck perfectly harmonizes with the 
rest of the figure. Observe the fingers and 
toes ; they should be clearly and accurately 
defined. The hair of the head should show 
the fine strands and present a natural ap- 
pearance. The folds of the drapery of hu- 
man figures should lay natural and present 
a fine, finished appearance. In the counter- 
feit the female figure does not bear the 
natural prominence in outlines ; observe, 
the eyes and shading surrounding does not 
present the lifelike appearance it should. 
The fingers and toes are not pi-operly and 
proportionately defined ; the hair does not 
bear that soft and finished appearance as in 
the genuine. 

4th. — Examine the imprint or engraver's 
names in the evenness and shape of the 



fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the 
imprint perfect. This rule should be strict- 
ly observed, as it is infallible in detecting 
counterfeits. 

5th.— In the genuine note the landscapes 
are well finished: trees and shrubs are 
neatly drawn ; the limbs well proportioned, 
and the foliage presenting a fine natural 
appearance ; clear sky is formed of fine 
parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy 
skies appear, they cross each other, and 
bear a soft, smooth and natural appear- 
ance. The perspective, shovying a view of 
the surrounding country, is always clear 
and distinct. The small figures in the 
background are always plainly seen, and 
their outlines ^nd general character re- 
cognized. Ships are well defined and the 
canvass has a clear texture ; railroad cars 
are very accurately delineated ; in examin- 
ing a train observe carefully the car most 
distant. In the counterfeit the landscape 
is usually poorly executed ; the leaves of 
trees poorly and unnaturally defined. — 
The lines representing still water are 
scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is 
represented generally in like manner, and 
where rolling clouds are to be seen, the 
unnatural eflfect is obvious. Domestic 
animals are generally poorly executed, 
particularly the head and limbs ; the eyes 
are seldom clearly defined. Ships are 
poorly drawn, the texture of the canvass 
coarse and inferior in style of workman- 
ship, thus giving an artificial appearance. 
Railroad cars are also poorly executed ; the 
car farthest from the eye is usually the 
most imperfect. The perspective is always 
imperfect, the figures in the background 
can seldom be recognized. 

6th.— Bills altered from a smaller to a 
higher denomination, can readily be de- 
tected by a close observer, in consequence 
of the striking difi'erence between the parts 
which have been extracted and the rest of 
the note. This dift'erence is readily per- 
ceived in the lack of color, body and finish 
of the dye ; we have seen bills where the 
surrounding shading in altered dies was 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



45 



too dark, but from the back or finisli of the 
white lines you have a sure test. Again 
observe particularly the words " Five " or 
" Ten Dollars " as the case may be, denot- 
ing the denomination of the note ; the 
parallel outlines and shading (if any) are 
coarse and imperfect. Alterations are fre- 
quently made oy pasting a greater denomi- 
nation over a smaller, but by holding the 
bill up to the light, the fraud will be per- 
ceived. Another method resorted to is to 
cut out the figures in the dies as well as 
the words one dollar, or the words two or 
three as the case may be, and with a sharp 
eraser, scrape down the ends and also the 
edges of the pieces to be inserted ; when 
the pieces thus pjrepared are affixed they 
are hardly perceivable ; but by passing 
the note through the hand, so as to feel 
the die both with the finger and thumb 
at the same time, the fraud will be de- 
tected by the stiflmess of the outer 
edges, " occasioned by the gum or method 
adopted" in affixing the parts. The letter 
S should always be examined, as in many 
alterations it is pasted or stamped at the 
end of the word " dollar;" and even when 
stamped there, the carrying out of the out- 
lines for its shading will readily show the 
fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequent- 
ly altered by extracting the name of bank, 
state and tovra ; they may readily be de- 



tected by observing first the state, second 
the title or name of the bank, third the 
tovm or location. 

General Kemabks in Reference to 
CoTTNTBRFEiTS. — The papcr on which they 
are printed is generally of a very inferior 
quality, with less body, finish and tough- 
ness than bank note paper has. The ink 
generally lacks the rica luster of the gen- 
uine ; the red letters and figures are gen- 
erally imperfect, and the ink does not pre- 
sent the Vermillion hue as it should. The 
printing is generally inferior, usually ex- 
hibiting specks of white in the most promi- 
nent letters. The date and filling up, and 
the President's and Cashier's names are 
generally written by the same person, 
although in many instances they present 
a difterent appearance. There are bills in 
circulation bearing either genuine dies or 
vignettes ; but upon close examination 
you will be enabled to detect any spurious 
bill, whether counterfeit or altered, by the 
instructions here given, if persevered in for 
a short time. We beg to suggest, if time 
vrill admit, the learner should examine 
minutely every bill he receives. A pow- 
erful pocket magnifying glass, which can 
be purchased for from fifty cents to one dol- 
lar at any of the opticians, will greatly en- 
able you to see and comprehend the difler- 
ence between genuine and spurious work

What will my readers give to know how 
to get rich ? Now, I will not vouch that 
the following rules will enable every per- 
epn who may read them to acquire wealth ; 
but this I will answer for, that if ever a 
man does grow rich by honest means, and 
retains his wealth for any length of time, 
he must practice upon the principles laid 
down in the following essay. The re- 
marks are not original with me, but I 
strongly commend them to the attention 
of every young man, at least as affording 
the true secret of success in attaining 
wealth. A single perusal of such an essay 
at an impressible moment, has sometimes 
a very wonderful effect upon the disposi- 
tion and character. 

Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame— full 
of her freaks and caprices ; who blindly 
distributes her favors without the slightest 
discrimination. So inconstant, so waver- 
ing is she represented, that her most faith- 
ful votaries can place no reliance on her 
promises. Disappointment, they tell us, 
is the lot of those who make offerings at 



her shrine. Now, all this is a vile slander 
upon the dear blind lady. 

Although wealth often appears the result 
of mere accident, or a fortunate concur- 
rence of favorable circumstances without 
any exertion of skill or foresight, yet any 
man of sound health and unimpaired mind 
may become wealthy, if he takes the prop- 
er steps. 

Foremost in the list of requisites are 
honesty and strict integrity in every trans- 
action of life. Let a man have the reputa- 
tion of being fair and upright in his deal- 
ings, and he v^ill possess the confidence of 
all who know him. Without these qualities 
every other merit will prove unavailing. 
Ask concerning a man, " Is he active and 
capable?" Yes. "Industrious, temper- 
ate and regular in his habits ? " — Oh yes. 
"Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?" 
Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he 
is not to be trusted ; he needs watching ; 
he is a little tricky, and will take an undue 
advantage, if he can. "Then I will have 
nothing to do with him," will be the in 



46 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



variable reply. Why, then, is honesty the 
hest policy ? Because, without it, you will 
get a bad name, and everybody will shun 
you. 

A character for knavery will prove an in- 
BUrmoTintable obstacle to success in al- 
most every undertaking. It will be found 
that the straight line is, in business, as in 
geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is 
almost impossible for a dishonest man to 
acquire wealth by a regular process of bus- 
iness, because he is shunned as a depreda- 
tor upon society. 

Needy men are apt to deviate from the 
rule of integrity, under the plea that ne- 
cessity knows no law ; they might as well 
add that it knows no shame. The course 
is suicidal, and by destroying all confidence, 
ever keeps them immured in poverty, 
although they may possess every other 
quality for success in the world. 

Punctuality, which is said to be the soul 
of business, is another important element 
in the art of money getting. The man 
known to be scrupulously exact in the ful- 
fillment of his engagements, gains the 
confidence of all, ana may command all 
the means he can use with advantage ; 
whereas, a man careless and regardless of 
his promises in money matters will have 
every purse closed against him. Therefore 
be prompt in your payments. 

Next, let U.B consider the advantages of 
a cautious circumspection in our inter- 
course with the world. Slowness of be- 
lief and a proper distrust are essential to 
success. The credulous and confiding are 
ever the dupes of knaves and impostors. 
Ask those who have lost their property 
how it happened, and you will find in 
most cases that it has been owing to mis- 
placed confidence. One has lost by en- 
dorsing, another by crediting, another 
by false representations ; all of which a 
little more foresight and a little more dis- 
trust would have prevented. In the af- 
fairs of this world men are not saved by 
faith, but by the want of it. 

Judge of men by what they do, not by 
what they say. Believe in looks rather 
than words. Observe all their movements. 
Ascertain their motives and their ends. 
Notice what they say or do in their un- 
guarded moments, when under the influ- 
ence of excitement. The passions have 
been compared to tortures which force men 
to reveal their secrets. Before trusting a 
man, before putting it in his ;power to 
cause you a loss, possess yourselt of every 
available information relative to him. 
Learn his history, his habits, inclinations 
and propensities ; his reputation for honor, 
industry, frugality and punctuality; his 
prospects, resources, supports, advantages 
and disadvantages ; his intentions and mo- 
tives of action; who are his friends and 
enemies, and what are his good or bad qual- 
ities. You may learn a man's good qualities 
and advantages from his friends— his bad 
qualities and disadvantages from his ene- 
mies. Make due allowance for exaggeration 
in both. Finally, examine carefully before 
engaging in anything, and act with energy 
afterwards. Have the hundred eyes of 



Argus beforehand, and the hundred hands 
of Briarius afterwards. 

Order and system in the management of 
business must not be neglected. Nothing 
contributes more to dispatch. Have a 
place for everything and everything in its 
place ; a time for everything, and every- 
thing irk, its time. Do first what presses 
most, and having determined what is to be 
done, and how it is to be done, lose no 
time in doing it. Without this method all 
is hurry and confusion, little or nothing 1s 
accomplished, and business is attended to 
with neither pleasure nor profit. 

A polite, afiable deportment is recom- 
mended. Agreeable manners contribute 
powerfully to a man's success. Take two 
men, possessing equal advantages in every 
other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, 
kind, obliging and conciliating in his man- 
ners ; the other harsh, rude and disobliging; 
and the one will become rich, while the 
other will starve. 

We are now to consider a very important 
principle in the business of money-getting, 
namely— Industry — nerseverin";, indefati- 
gable attention to business. Persevering 
diligence is the Philosopher's stone, which 
turns everything to gold. Constant, regu- 
lar, habitual and systematic application to 
business, must in time, it properly directed, 
produce great results. It must lead to 
wealth, with the same certainty that pov- 
erty follows in the train of idleness and 
inattention. It has been truly remarked 
that he who follows his amusements in- 
stead of his business, will, in a short time, 
have no business to follow. 

The art of money-saving is an important 
part of the art of money-getting. Without 
frugality no one can become rich ; with it, 
few would be poor. Those who consume 
as fast as they produce, are on the road to 
ruin. As most of the poverty we meet 
with grows out of idleness and extrava- 
gance, so most large fortunes have been 
the result of habitual industry and frugali- 
ty. The practice of economy is as neces- 
sary in the expenditure of time as of 
money. They say if "we take care of the 
pence the pounds will take care of them- 
selves." So, if we take care of the 
minutes, the days will take care of them- 
selves, f 

The acquisition of wealth demands as 
much self-denial, and as many sacrifices 
of present gratification, as the practice of. 
virtue itself. Vice and poverty proceed, in 
some degree, from the same sources, 
namely— the disposition to sacrifice the 
future to the present ; the inability to fore- 
go a small present pleasure for great future 
advantages. Men fail of fortune in this 
world, as they, fail of happiness in the 
world to come, simply because they are un- 
willing to deny themselves momentary en- 
jojTnents for the sake of permanent future 
happiness. 

Every large city is filled with persons, 
who, in order to support the appearance of 
wealth, constantly live beyond their in- 
come, and make up the deficiency by 
contracting debts which are never paid. 
Others, there are, the mere drones of so- 



EOW TO SECURE THE PUBLIC LANDS. 



47 



ciety, who pass their days in idleness, and 
subsist by pirating on the hives of the in- 
dustrious. Many who run a short-lived 
career of splendid beggary, could they be 
but persuaded to adopt a system of rigid 
economy for a few years, misjht pass the 
remainder of their days in affluence. But 
no 1 They must keep up appearances, 
thev must live liie other folks. 

Their debts accumulate; their credit 
fails; they are harassed by duns, and be- 
sieged by constables and sheriff. In this 
extremity, as a last resort, they submit to 
a shameful dependence, or engage in crim- 
inal practices which entail hopeless wretch- 
edness and infamy on themselves and 
families. 



Stick to the business in which you .are 
regularly employed. Let speculators make 
thousands in a year or a day ; mind your 
own regular trade, never turning from it 
to the right hand or to the left. If you are 
a merchant, a professional man, or a me- 
chanic, never buy lots or stocks, unless 
you have surplus money which you wish 
to invest. Tour own business you under- 
stand as well as other men ; but other peo- 
ple's business you do not understand. 
Let your business be some one which is 
useful to the community. All such occu- 
pations possess the elements of profit in 
themselves. 



How to Secure the Public Lands, 

OR THE ENTRY OF THE SAME UNDER THE PRE-EMPTION AND HOMESTEAD 

LAWS. 



The following circular gives all necessary 
information as to the procedure necessary 
in purchasing and securing the public 
lands : 

Depabtjibnt of the Ihteeiob, ) 

Gen'l Land Oppice, July 19, 1865. f 

Numerous questions having arisen as to 
the mode of procedure to purchase public 
lands, or acquire title to the same by bounty 
land locations, by pre-emptions or by home- 
stead, this circular is communicated for the 
information of all concerned. 

In order to acquire title to public lands 
the following steps must be taken : 

1. Application must be made to the Reg- 
ister of the district land office in which the 
land desired may be situated. 

A list of all the land offices in the United 
States is furnished by the Department, 
with the seats of the different offices, 
where it is the diity of the Register and 
Eeceiver to be in attendance, and give 
proper facilities and information to persons 
desirous of obtaining lands. 

The minimum price of ordinary public 
lands is $1,25 per acre. The even or re- 
served sections falling within railroad 
grants are increased to double the minimum 
price, being $2,50 per acre. 

Lands once offered at public sale, and not 
aiterwards kept out of market by reserva- 
tion, or otherfvise, so as to prevent free 
competition, may be entered or located. 

2. By the appUcant filing with the Regis- 
ter his written application describing the 



tract, with its area ; the Register will then 
certify to the receiver whether the land is 
vacant, vrith its price ; and when found to 
be so, the applicant must pay that price 
per acre, or may locate the same with land 
warrant, and thereafter the Receiver will 
give him a "duplicate receipt," which he 
IS required to surrender previous to the

legally qualified, upon his compliance with 
the requirements of the pre-emption laws 
of 4th September, 1841, and .3d March, 1843; 
and after such party shall have made ac- 
tual settlement for such a length of time 
as wiU show he designs it for his perma- 
nent home, and is acting in good faiih, 
building a house and residing therein, he 
may proceed to the district land office, es- 
tablish his pre-emption claim according to 
law, by proving his actual residence and 
cultivation, and showing that he is other- 
wise within the purview of these acts. — 
Then he can enter the land at $1,25, either 
in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless 
the premises should be $2,50 acre lands.

plying witli the Department Circular, dated 
30th October, 1862. 

5. The law confines Homestead entries 
to surveyed lands ; and although, in cer- 
tain States and Territories noted in the sub- 
joined list, pre-emptors may go on land be- 
fore survey, yet they can only establish their 
claim after return of survey, but must file 
their pre-emption declaration within three 
months after receipt of ofllcial plat, at the 
local land-offlce where the settlement was 
made before survey. Where, however, it 
was made after survey, the claimant must 
file within three months after date of set- 
tlement ; and where actual residence and 
cultivation have been long enough to show 



that the claimant has made the land his 
permanent home, he can establish his 
claim and pay for the same at any time 
before the date of the public sale of lands 
within the range in which his settlement 
may fall. 

6. All unofiered surveyed lands not ac- 
quired under pre-emption, homestead, or 
otherwise, under express legal sanction, 
must be ofiered at public sale under the 
President's Proclamation, and struck off to 
the highest bidder, as required by act of 
April 24, 1820.

an agent for another, and in that capacity

48. If an agreement upon which a party 
relies be oral only, it must be proved by 
evidence. But if the contract be reduced 
to virriting, it proves itself j and now no 
evidence whatever is receivable for the 
purpose of varying the contract or affecting 
its obligations. The reasons are obvious. 
The law prefers written to oral evidence, 
Ironi its greater precision and certainty, 
aad because it is less open to fraud. And 
where parties have closed a negotiation 
and reduced the result to writing, it is pre- 
sumed that they have written all they in- 
tended to agree to, and therefore, that what 
is omitted was finally rejected by them. —

such representative's authority to act in

pany, by a passenger, to recover damages 
lor injuries sustained on the road, it is not

fault or negligence of theirs. 

bi'i. A guest is a competent witness, in an 
action between himself and an inn-keeper, 
to prove the character and value of lost 
Xjersonal baggage. Money in a trunk, not

the journey which he has undertaken, is a 
part of his baggage ; and in case of its loss, 
wJiile at any inn, the plaintiff may prove its 
amount by his own testimony.

band.

dicially declared a lunatic is void.

ulated in the contract.

untarily made,to constitute evidence against 
him. 

74. The defendant in a suit must be serv- 
ed with process; but service of such pro- 
cess upon his wife, even in his absence from 
the State, is not, in the absence of statuto- 
ry provisions, sufficient.

But when other proper evidence is given, 
tending to establish the fact of agency, it

ing to show the capacity in which he act- 
&t. When evidence is competent in one 
rci-pect and incompetent in another, it is 
the duty Of the court to admit it, and con- 
trol its effects by suitable instructions to 
the jury. 

84. The court has a general power to re- 
move or suspend an attorney for such im- 
moral conduct as rendered him unworthy

neither will be protected if he does any- 
thing, however slight, to mislead or deceive 
the other.

of acceptance shall be given him. 

91. The date of an instrument is so far a 
material part of it, that /an alteration of 
J;he date by the holder after execution, 
makes the instrument void. 

93. A corporation may maintain an action 
for libel, for words published of them and 
relating to its trade or business, by which

conditional upon the success of his client,

95. A person may contract to labor for an- 
other during life, in consideration of receiv-

the bank of the river; these expressions 
carry the grantee to the center of the high- 
way or river. 

97> The court will take pains to construe 
the words used in a deed in such a 'way as 
to effect the intention of the parties, how- 
ever unskillfuUy the instrument may be 
drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange

THE DECIMAL SYSTEM 



OF 



WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 

As Autliorizea liy Act of Coagress-Approyel My 28, 1866, 



STANDARDS. 

In every system of Weights and Measures 
it is necessary to have what are called 
" Standards^'''' as the pound, yard, gallon, 
&c., to be divided and multiplied into 
smaller and larger parts and denominations. 
The definition and construction of these 
Standards involve philosophical and scien- 
tific principles of . a somewhat abstruse 
character, and are made and procured by 
the legislative department of the govern- 
ment. The nominal Standards in the new 
system are the Meteb, the Abb, the Liter, 
and the Gram. The only real Standard, the 
one by which all the other standards are 
measured, and from which the system de- 
rives its name of " Metric," is the Meter. 

THE METER 

Is used for all measures of length, distance, 
breadth, depth, heighth, &c., and was in- 
tended to be, and is very nearly, one ten- 
millionth of the distance on the earth's 
surface from the equator to the pole. It is 
about 39% inches, or 3 feet, 3 inches and 
3 eif'hths, and is to be substituted for the 
yard. 

THE ARE 

Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and 
is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 
square rods. 

THE LITER 

Is the unit for measuring solids and capa- 
ity, and is equal to the contents of a cube 
whose edge is one-tenth of a meter. It is 
about equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in 
cable, dry and liquid measures. 
D 



f^^ A cubic Meter (or Kiloliter) is called 
a stere, and is also usedas a standard in cer- 
tain cubic measures. 

THE GRAM 

Is the Unit of weight, and is the weight of 
a cube of pure water, each edge of the cube 
being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is 
about equal to 15>^ grains. It is intended 
as the Standard in aU weights, and with its 
divisions and multiples, to supersede the 
use of what are now called Avoirdupois, 
Apothecaries and Troy Weights. 

Each of the foregoing Standards is divi- 
ded decimally, and larger units are also 
formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The 
successive subordinate parts are designa- 
ted by the jjreflxes Deci, Centi and Milli ; 
the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, 
Kilo and Myria ; each having its own nu- 
merical signification, as will oe more clear- 
ly seen in the tables hereinafter given. 

The terms used may, at first sight, have 
a formidable appearance, seem difficult to 
pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to 
be, therefore, objectionable ; but with a lit- 
tle attention and use, the apprehended dif- 
ficulty .will be found more apparent than 
real, as has been abundantly proved by ex- 
perience. The importance, also, of con- 
formity in the use of commercial terms, on 
the i)art of the United States, with the 
practice of the many nations in which the 
system, with its present nomenclature, has 
already been adopted, must greatly over- 
balance the comparatively slight oajection 
aUuded to.

Acts and Resolutions of Congress. 

PUBLIC -No. 183. 

AN ACT to authorize the use of the metric 
system of weights and measures. 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of 
Representatives of the United States of Ameri- 
ca in Congress assembled. That from and af- 
ter the passage of this act, it shall be law- 
ful throughout the United States of AJmeri- 
ca to employ the weights and measures of 
the metric system ; and no contract or deal- 
ing, or pleading in any court, shall be 
deemed invalid or liable to objection, be- 



1 cause the weights or measures expressed or 
referred to therein are weights or measures 
of the metric system. 

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That 
the tables in the schedule hereto annexed, 
shall be recognized in the construction of 
contracts, and in all legal proceedings, as 
establishing, in terms of the weights and 
measures now in use in the United States, / 
the equivalents of the weights and meas- 
ures expressed therein in terms of the me- 
tric system ; and said tables maybe lawful- 
ly used ipr computing, determining and ex- 
pressing, in customary weights and meas- 
ures, the weights and measures of the metric 
system.

Discount and Fremlnm. 

When a person buys an article for $1,00 — 
20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it 
again for $1,00, he makes a profit of 25 per 
cent, on his investment. Thus : He pays 
80 cents and sells for $1,00— a gain of 20 
cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for 
any transaction where the sale or purchase 
of gold, silver, or curren'cy is concerned, 
the following rules -wlU apply in all cases. 

Rule 1st. — To find premium when dis- 
count is given:- Multiply 100 by rate of 
discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis- 
count. 

EtTLE 2d.— To find discount when pre- 
mium is given. Multiply the rate of interest 
by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of 
premium. 

Suppose A has $140 in currency, which 
he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold 
is 27 per cent, premium, how much gold 
should he receive ? In this case the pre- 
mium is given, consequently we must find 
the discount on A's currency and subtract 
it from the $140, as per rule 2d, showing 
the discount to be a trifle more than 21 per 
cent, and that he should receive $110,60 in 
gold.

Facts on Advertising-. 

The advertisements in an ordinary num- 
ber of the London Times exceed 2,500. The 
annual advertising bills of one London firm 
are said to amount to $200,000 ; and three 
others are mentioned who each annually 
expend for the purpose $50,000. The ex- 
pense for advertising the eight editions of 
the " Encyclopcedia Britannia " is said to 
have been $15,000. 



In large cities nothing is more common 
than to see large business establishments, 
which seem to have an immense advantage 
over all competitors, by the wealth, expe- 
rience, and prestige they have acquired, 
drop gradually out of public view, and be 
succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, 
more energy, and more determined to have 
the fact that they sell such and such com- 
modities known from one end of the land to 
the other. In other words, the establish- 
ments advertise ; the old die of dignity.— 
The fonoer are ravenous to pass out of ob- 
scurity into publicity; the latter believe 
that their publicity is so obvious that it 
cannot be obscured. The first understand 
that they must thrust themselves upon 
public attention, or be disregarded; the 
second, having once obtained public atten- 
tion, suppose they have arrested it perma- 
nently; while, in fact, nothing is more char- 
acteristic of the world than the ease with 
which it forgets. 

Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder 
business man ever lived, used to say : I 
have always considered advertising liber- 
ally and long to be the great medium of 
success in business, and the prelude to 
wealth. And I have made it an invariable 
rule too, to advertise in the dullest times 
as well as the busiest ; long experience 
having taught me that money thus spent is 
well laid out; as by keeping my business 
continually before the public it has secured 
me many sales that I would otherwise have 
lost.

Brilliant Whitewash. ' 

Many have heard of the brilliant stucco 
whitewash on the east end of the Presi- 
dent's house at Washington. The follow- 
ing is a recipe for it ; it is gleaned from the 
National Intelligencer, with some addi- 
tional improvements learned by experi- 
ments : Take half a bushel of nice un- 
slacked lime, slack it with boiling water, 
cover it during the process to keep in the 
steam. Strain the liquid through a fine 
sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of 
salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa- 
ter ; three pounds of ground rice, boUed to 
a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot ; half 
a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and 
a pound of clean glue, which has been pre- 
viously dissolved by soaking it well, and 
then hanging it over a slow fare, in a small 
kettle within a large one filled with water. 
Add five gallons oihot water to the mixture, 
stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov- 
ered from the dirt. 

tt should be put on right hot ; for this 
purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a 
portable furnace. It is said that about a 
pint of this mixture will cover a square 
yard upon the outside of a house if proper- 
ly applied. Brushes more or less small may 
be used according to the neatness of the job 
required. It answers as well as oil paint 
for wood, brick or scone, and is cheaper. 
It retains its brilliancy for many years. 
There is nothing of the kind that will 
compare with it, either for inside or outride 
walls. 

Coloring matter may be put in and made 
of any shade you like. Spanish brown 
stirred in wiU make red pink, more or less 
deep according to the quantity. A delicate 
tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. 
Finely pulverized common clay, well mixed 
with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone 
color. YeUow-ochre stirred in makes yel- 
low wash, bnt chrome goes further, and 
makes a color generally esteemed prettier. 
In all these cases the darkness of the shades 
of course is determined by the quantity of 
coloring used. It is difficult to make rules, 
because tastes are different. It would be 
best to try experiments on a shingle and let 
it dry. We have been told that green must 
not be mixed with lime. The lime de- 
stroys the color, and the color has an efiect 
on the whitewash, which makes it crack 
and peel. When walls have been badly 
smoked, and you wish to have them a clean 
white, it is well to squeeze indigo plenti- 
fully through a bag into the water you use, 
before it is stirred in the whole mixture. 
If a larger quantity than five gallons be 
wanted, the same proportion should be ob- 
served. 



Ho-nr to get a Horse out of a 
Fire. 

The great difficulty of getting horses from 
a stable where surrounding buildings are in 
a state of conflagation, is well mown. — 
The plan of covering their eyes with a blan- 
ket will not always succeed. 

A gentleman whose horses have been in 
great peril from such a cause, having tried 



in vain to save them, hit upon the expedi- 
ent of having them harnessed as though go- 
ing to their usual work; when, to his aston- 
ishment, they were led from the stable 
without difficulty. 



The Chemical Barometer. 

Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old- 
fashioned Eau-de-Cologne bottle, and put 
into it two and a half drachms of camphor, 
and eleven drachms of spirits of wine ; 
when the camphor is dissolved, which it 
will readily do by slight agitation, add the 
following mixture : Take water, nine 
drachms ; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) 
thirty-eight grains ; and muriate of am- 
monia (sal ammoniac) thirty-eight grains. 
Dissolve these salts in the water prior to 
mixing with the camphorated spirit ; then 
shake the whole weU together. Cork the 
bottle well, and wax the top, but after- 
wards make a very small aperture in the 
cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may 
then be hung up, or placed in any stationa- 
ry position. By observing the difiterent 
appearances which the materials assume, 
as the weather changes, it becomes an ex- 
cellent prognosticator of a coming storm or 
of a eunny sky. 



licech Barometer. 

Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it 
three gills of water, and place in it a healthy 
leech, changing the water in summer once 
a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, 
and it will most accurately prognosticate 
the weather. If the weather is to be fine, 
the leech lies motionless at the bottom of 
the glass and coiled together in a spiral 
form ; if rain may be expected, it will creep 
up to the top of its lodgings and remain 
there tUl the weather is settled ; if we are 
to have wind, it will move through its habi- 
tation vrith amazing swiftness, and seldom 
goes to rest till it begins to blow hard ; if a 
remarkable storm of thunder and rain is to 
succeed, it wiU lodge for some days before 
almost continually out of the water, and 
discover great uneasiness in violent throes 
and convulsive-like motions ; in frost as in 
clear summer-like weather it lies constantly 
at the bottom ; and in snow as in rainy 
weather it pitches its dwelling in the very 
mouth of the phial. The top should be cov- 
ered over with a piece of muslin. 



To Measuee Gkatn in a Bin.— Find the 
number of cubic feet, from which deduct 
one-fifth. The remainder is the number of 
bushels — allowing, however, one bushel 
extra to every 234. Thus in a remainder of 
224 there would be 225 bushels. In a re- 
mainder of 448 there would be 450 bushels 
&c.

well together. (Color with carmine or 
cochineal, if you like.) iJose— What will 
lie on a five cent piece, night and morning, 
washing the parts freely in cold water once 
or twice a day. This is a remedy of great 
value. 

The cure will be materially hastened by 
taking a table-spoon of sulphur in a half 
pint of milk, daily, until the cure is affected. 

Sues Cube foe Cobns, Waets and 
Chilblains.— Take of nitric and muriatic 
acids, blue vitriol and salts of tartar, 1 oz. 
each. Add the blue vitriol, pulverized, to 
either of the acids; add the salts of tartar 
in the same way ; when done foaming, add 
the other acid, and in a few days it will be 
ready for use. For chilblains and corns 
apply it very lightly with a swab, and re- 
peat in a day or two until cured. For warts, 
once a week, until they disappear. 

HooF-AiL IN Sheep.— Mix 2 ozs. each of 
butter of antimony and muriatic acid with 
1 oz. of pulverized white vitriol, and apply 
once or twice a week to the bottom of the 
foot.

the fire, put in two table-spoonfuls of spirits 
of turpentine and one of ammonia : pour it 
in a barrel, and fill up with cold soft water ; 
let it stand three or four days before using. 
It is an excellent soap for washing clothes, 
extracting the dirt readily, and not fading 
colored articles. 



VAL UABLE RECIPES. 



61 



Water Pboof fob Lbatheb. — Take lin- 
seed oil 1 pint, yellow wax and white tur- 
pentine each 2 ozs. Burgundy pitch 1 oz., 
melt and color with lampolack. 

To Keep Cider Sweet.— Put into each 
barrel, immediately after making, >^ lb. 
ground mustard, 3 oz. salt and 2 oz. pulver- 
ized chalk. Stir them in a little cider, pour 
them into the barrel, and shake up well. 

Ague Cure.— Procure \}i table-spoons of 
fresh mandrake root juice, (by pounding) 
and mix with the same quantity of molas- 
ses, and take in three equal doses, 2 hours 
a part, the whole to be taken 1 hour before 
the chill comes on. Take a swallow of 
some good bitters before meals, for a couple 
of weeks after the chills are broken, and the 
cure will be permanent. 

Cure fob Salt Rheum to Scurvy. — 
Take of the pokeweed, any time in sum- 
mer ; pound it ; press out the juice ; strain 
it into a pewter dish; set it in the sun till it 
becomes a salve— then put it into an earth- 
en mug; add to it fresh water and bees' 
wax sufficient to make an ointment of com- 
mon consistency ; simmer the whole over 
a fire till thoroughly mixed. When cold, 
rub the part affected. The patient will al- 
most immediately experience its good ef- 
fects, and the most obstinate cases will be 
cured in three or four months. Tested. — 
The juice of the ripe berries may be pre- 
pared in the same way. 

Superior Paint — fob Brick Houses. — 
To lime whitewash, add for a fastener, sul- 
phate of zinc, and shade with any color you 
choose, as yellow ochre, Venetian red, etc. 
It outlasts oil paint. 



Felons.— Stir 1 oz. of Venice turpentine 
with X tea-spoonful of water, till it looks 
like candied honey, and apply by spreading 
upon cloth and wrapping around the finger. 
If not too long delayed will cure in 6 hours. 

A poke root poultice is also said to be a 
sure remedy. 

Water-Proof Blacking and Harness 
Polish.— Take two and a half ounces gum 
shellac and half a pint of alcohol, and set 
in a warm place until dissolved ; then add 
two and a half ounces Venice turpentine 
to neutralize the alcohol ; add a tablespoon- 
ful of lampblack. Apply with a fine sponge. 
It will give a good polish over oil or grease. 

MosQUiTos.— To get rid of these tormen- 
tors, take a few hot coals on a shovel, or a 
chafing dish, and burn upon them some 
brown sugar in your bed-rooms and parlors, 
and you efl'ectuaUy banish or destroy every 
mosquito for the night. 

Cheap Outside Paint.— Take two parts 
(in bulk) of water lime ground fine, one part 
(in bulk) of white lead ground in oil. Mix 
them thoroughly, by adding best boiled lin- 
seed oil, enough to prepare it to pass through 
a paint mill, after which temper with oil 
tin it can be applied with a common paint 
brush. Make any color to suit. It will last 
three times as long as lead paint, and cost 
not one-fourth as much. It is Superior. 

Curb for a Cough.— A strong decoction 
of the leaves of the pine, sweetened with 
loaf sugar. Take a wine-glass warm on go- 
ing to bed, and half an hour before eating 
three times a day. The above is sold as a 
cough syrup, and is doing wonderful cures, 
and it is sold at a great profit to the manu- 
facturers. 



HovET to Judge a Horse. 

A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, 
undertakes to judge the character of a horse 
by outward appearances, and oflers the fol- 
lowing suggestions, the result of his close 
observation and long experience : 

If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, 
his feet, legs and face white, these are 
marks of kindness. If he is broad and full 
between the eyes, he may be depended on 
as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- 
ing trained to anything. 

As respects such horses, the more kindly 
you treat them the better you will be treat- 
ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de- 
scription stand a whip, if well fed. 

If you want a safe horse, avoid one that 
is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as 
not to scare ; but he will have too much go- 
ahead in him to be safe with everybody. 

If you want a fool, but a horse of great 
bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white 
hair about him. If his face is a little dish- 
ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride 
such a horse that is not an adept in riding 
— they are always tricky and unsafe. 



If you want one that will never give out, 
never buy a large, overgrovm one. 

A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a 
white one cold. 

If you want a gentle horse, get one with 
more or less white about the head ; the 
more the better. Many persons suppose 
the parti-colored horses belonging to the 
circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their 
oddity. But the selections thus made are 
on account of their great docility and gen- 
tleness. 



Measm-ement of Hay In the 
Mow or Stack,— It is often desirable, 
where conveniences for weighing are not at 
hand, to purchase and sell hay by measure- 
ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will 
answer in all cases, as it would require 
more cubic feet at the top of a mow than at 
the bottom. The general rule adopted by 
those who have tested it, is 7>^ cubic feet of 
solid Timothy hay, as taken from mow or 
bottom of stack. The rule may be varied 
for upper part of mow or stack according 
to pressure.

GENESEE COUNTY. 63 



GENESEE COUNTY. 



THIS COUNTY was formed from Ontario, March 30, 
1802, and originally comprised all that part of the State lying 
west of Genesee River, and a line extending due south from the 
point at the junction of Genesee River and Canascraga Creek, to 
the south line of the State. Allegany County *was taken off in 
1806, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua and Niagara in 1808, parts of Liv- 
ingston and Monroe in 1821, Orleans in 1824 and Wyoming in 
1841. A part of Covington was annexed to Livingston County in 
1823, and Shelby was added to Orleans in 1825. It is one of the 
western counties of the State, separated from Lake Ontario by Or- 
leans, and from Lake Erie and Niagara River by Erie County. It 
is centrally distant from Albany 229 miles and contains 507 square 
miles. The surface is level or gently undulating for the most part. 
The south border is occupied by a range of hills which extends 
north from Wyoming County, and has a general elevation of from 
200 to 300 feet above the valleys and about 1,000 feet above tide. 
A limestone terrace, bordered in many places by nearly perpen- 
dicular ledges, extends east and west through the County north of 
the center. At each extremity in the County this terrace ranges 
in hight from 50 to 100 feet, but it declines towards the center to 
a hight of from 20 to 40 feet. 

Tonawanda Creek enters Alexander from the south and fl(»vs in 
a north-east direction to the village of Batavia, thence in a general 
north-west direction to the west border of the County. Its name 
signifies swift running water, from the rapid current for ten miles 
below Batavia, though its course generally is very tortuous and 
sluggish. Between Attica, Wyoming County, and Batavia, this 
stream flows between two parallel roads one mile apart. The dis- 
tance by the highway is eleven miles and by the stream 43 miles. 
Its principal tributaries are Little Tonawanda and Bowen's Creeks. 
Oak Orchard Creek takes its rise near the center of the County and 
pursues a winding course to the north-east corner of Elba, where it 



64 GENESEE COUNTY. 



turns west and flows through the great Tonawanda Swamp, which 
occupies the north part of Elba, Oakfield and Alabama. Black 
Creek, called by the Indians Checkanango, flows north through near 
the center of Bethany, Stafford and Byron, thence easterly through 
Bergen, into Monroe County. Bigelow and Spring Creeks are its 
ckief tributaries. Oatka, or Allen's Creek, flows across the south- 
east corner of the County, and Murder and Eleven Mile Creeks 
across the south-west corner. There is a series of beautiful cas- 
cades upon Tonawand * Black and Oatka Crfeks, as they pass ovei? 
the limestone terrace near the center of the County. 

The lowest rocks in the County belong to the Onondaga salt 
group, extending along the north border. Gypsum is quarried in 
se\feral places. The hydraulic, Onondaga and corniferous lime- 
stone from the limestone terrace extend through the County. 
Lime and building stone are extensively obtained by the outcrop 
of these rocks. Next above the limestones are the Marcellus and 
Hamilton shales, occupying the whole south part of the County, 
A thick deposit of drift covers most of the County, the underlying 
rocks appearing only in the ravines of the streams. Large depos 
its of muck and marl are found in most of the swamps, furnishing 
an almost inexhaustible fertilizer to the soil. Marl is deposited by 
many of the springs and streams in the County. Along the north 
border are numerous wells yielding water strongly impregnated 
with sulphuric acid, and. known as " Sour Springs." The soil gen- 
erally is a deep and fertile sandy or gravelly loam, intermixed with 
clay and mostly underlaid by clay or limestone. 

The " Genesee Country," of which this County forms a part, has 
from its first settlement been noted for its fertility. Agriculture 
forms the leading pursuit. For many years wheat formed the 
staple product, but late years farmers have turned their attention 
more to raising the coarser grains and the cultivation of fruit. 
Considerable attention is also given to raising wool and cattle and 
to dairying. 

The County Seat is located at Batavia. The act organizing the 
County required the Holland Land Company to donate one acre of 
land for County purposes and erect the necessary buildings. Jo- 
seph Ellicott, the agent of the Company, complied with the require- 
ments of the law and erected the buildings in 1802. The first 
officers of the County were Joseph Ellicott, First Judge ; Daniel 
D. Brown, District Attorney ; James W. Stevens, County Clerk ; 
Richard M. Stoddard, Sheriff ; Jeremiah R. Munson, Surrogate. 
A new Court House was erected in 1841-2 at a cost of 117,000. 
It is a fine stone structure, three stories high, containing the County 
Clerk's Office and rooms for the other County officers. The Jail 
is of brick, situated a few rods west of the Court House. It was 
erected in 1851. 



GENESEE COUNTY. 65 



In June, 1803, the Courts of the County were first organized. 
The Judges were Ezra Piatt, John H. Jones and Benjamin Elli- 
cott. John Greig, Richard Smith, George Hosmer, Timothy and 
Governeur Ogden were admitted to practice in the new Court as 
attorneys and counselors. The first Grand Jury west of the Gen- 
esee River was organized at this term of the Court. The names of 
the jurors were as follows : Alexander Rea, Asa Ransom, Peter 
Vandeventer, Daniel Henry, Samuel F. Geer, Lovell Churchill, 
Jabez Warren, Zerah Phelps, Jotham Bemus, Seymour Kellogg, 
John A. Thompson, John Ganson, Jr., Isaac Smith, Elisha Far- 
well, Peter ShaefTer, Hugh McDermott, John McNaughton and 
Luther Coe. The jail limits consisted of the side-walks of the vil- 
lage of Batavia, fifteen links wide, and several dwellings and yards 
to allow the debtors access to boarding houses. The entire limits 
embraced about three acres of ground. The first trial for murder 
that occurred in the County was in June, 1807. Daniel D. Tomp- 
kins was the presiding Judge. James McLean was tried for the 
murder of William Orr. He was convicted and executed at Ba- 
tavia in August, 1807. 

The County Poor House is located on a farm of 200 acres in the 
town of Bethany, about ten miles from Batavia. The number of 
paupers during the year ending October 31, 1868, was 170, sup- 
ported at an expense of $6,030.88. The average expense per week 
for supporting each was $1.32. The personal property on the farm 
is valued at 12,214.84, and the produce of the farm during the last 
year 12,716.00. The Institution is in a good condition and appears 
to be well managed. ^ 

The New York Central Railroad extends in a south-west direc- 
tion through Bergen, Byron, Stafford, Batavia, Pembroke and the 
north-west corner of Darien. A branch of this road extends south 
from Batavia, through Alexander, to Attica. The Canandaigua 
and Niagara Falls Branch extends west through LeRoy, Stafford, 
Batavia and Pembroke, crossing the main line at Batavia. The 
Buffalo, New York and Erie Railroad extends through LeRoy, 
Stafford, Batavia and Alexander. The mania for plank roads pre- 
vailed in this as in many other counties of the State, and under its 
influence several were constructed but have long since been aban- 
doned. An important canal feeder extends from Tonawanda 
Creek through the north-west corner of Alabama. 

There are four weekly newspapers now published in the County. 

The first paper published was commenced in the spring of 1807, 
at Batavia, by Elias Williams, and was called 

The Genesee Intelligencer. It was the first paper published west 
of the Genesee River. It was suspended in October of the same 
year. In the spring of 1808 Benjamin Blodgett and Samuel Peck 
commenced 



66 GENESEE COUNTY. 



The Cornucopia and continued it until 1811. 

The Republican Advocate was commenced in 1811, by Benjamin 
Blodgett and David C. Miller. It soon after passed into the hands 
of Miller and was published by him until 1828. It was then suc- 
cessively in the hands of Charles Sentell, Charles W. Millei', Ed- 
win Hough, Andrew W. Young, Lewis & Brown, C. C. Allen and 
Waite & Gooley. Messrs. Waite & Cooley published the paper 
from June 8th, 183.5, to September of the same year, when Mr. 
Cooley retired and the paper was conducted by D. D. Waite until 
January 1st, 1854, when he sold out to Messrs. Kimberly & Good- 
rich, the proprietors of the Genesee County Whig. The paper was 
then published as the 

Republican Advocate and Genesee County Whig until January 
1st, 1855, when the latter part of the title was dropped and the pa- 
per resumed its original name, 

THE REPUBLICAN ADVOCATE, and was published by J. 
H. Kimberly until November, 1857, when it passed into 
the hands of D. D. Waite, M'^ho has continued its publication to the 
present time. 

The Daily Advocate was started in May, 1859, by D. D. Waite, 
and continued until August 9th, 1861. 

The Spirit of the Times was started at Batavia, February 3d, 
1819, by Oran Follett. In May, 1825, it was sold to his brother, 
Frederick Follett, who continued its publication until August, 1836. 
It was published successively by Fred. Follett, Lucas Seaver, 
Wm. Seaver & Son and Charles Hurley, until 1856. 

THE LEROY GA.ZETTE was commenced in 1826 by J. O. 
Balch. It was successively issued by Starr »& Hotchkin, Henry 
D. Ward, Richard Hollister, Rufus Robertson, F. Goodrich, Seth 
M. Gates, Martin O. Coe and Cyrus Thompson, until 1840, when 
it passed into the hands of C. B. Thompson, who has continued its 
publication to the present time. 

The People's Press was commenced at Batavia in 1825, by an 
association, with Benj. Blodgett, editor. It was subsequently is- 
sued by Martin, Adams & Thorp, Adams & Thorp and Adams & 
McCleary, and was finally merged in the Spirit of the Times and 
continued as The Spirit of the Times and the People's Press. 

The Morgan Investigator was published at the office of the Re- 
publican Advocate during the Morgan excitement in 1827, and con- 
tinued about a year. 

The Masonic Intelligencer was published about the same time at 
the office of the People's Press. 



GENESEE COUNTY. 67 



The Farmers' and Mechanics' Journal was commenced at Alex- 
ander, Nov. 4, 1837, by Peter Lawrence. In June, 1840, it was 
removed to Batavia and issued as 

The Batavia Times and Farmers' and Mechanics' Journal, by 
Frederick Follett and Peter Lawrence. Fred. Follett became the 
sole proprietor sooii after and published it until 1843, when it 
passed into the hands of Lucas Seaver and was merged in the 
S^oirit of the Times. 

The Temperance Herald (monthly) was issued from the office of 
the Spirit of the Times, by Lucas. Seaver, for one year from March, 
1843. 

The Genesee County Whig was started at Batavia in 1852, by 
Kimberly & Tyrell, and was published by them until 1854. when 
it was merged in the Republican Advocate. 

The LeRoy Advertiser y^ is commenced April 1, 1857, by Thomas 

B. Tufts. It was discontinued in July, 1858. 

The Genesee Republican and Herald of Reform was commenced 
at LeRoy in 1829, and was published one or two years by Free- 
man & Son ; Orestes A. Brownson, editor. 

The Genesee Courier was commenced at LeRoy in the spring of 
1844, by Edward Bliss, and was continued about a year. In 1853 
the paper was revived and published a short time. 

The Genesee Herald was commenced at LeRoy in 1854, by Wm. 

C. Grummond. In January, 1857, it was removed to Batavia and 
published by A. J. McWain, until his death in June, 1860. The 
administrator continued its publication one year when it passed into 
the hands of Henry Todd. For a few years it was published as 

The Genesee Herald and Spirit of the Times. Mr. Todd dropped 
the former part of the title and issued it as 

THE SPIRIT OF THE TIMES, and still continues its publica- 
tion under that title. 

The Genesee Daily Herald was issued from the same office in 
1858, and continued until November, 1860. 

The LeRoy Democrat was commenced in December, 1852, by 
Henry Todd. In November, 1853, it was removed to Batavia and 
its name changed to 

The Batavia Democrat. In December, 1856, it passed into the 
hands of John Bergen and subsequently into those of Harry Wil-

68 GENESEE COUNTY. 



PROGRESSIVE BATAVIAN, and still continues its publica- 
tion. 

The greater part of this County is embraced in the tract known 
as the Holland Purchase, some of the eastern towns being included 
in the Morris Reserve. The territory known as Western New 
York was originally claimed by Massachusetts, by virtue of a char- 
ter granted by the King of England to the Plymouth Colony. The 
same territory was subsequently granted to the Duke of York and 
Albany. Without giving a history of the disputes which subse- 
quently arose between the States of Massachusetts and New York, 
we will say that the question wds settled' by a convention of com- 
missioners who met at Hartford, Conn., December 16th, 1786. 
According to the stipulations entered into, Massachusetts ceded to 
New York all her claims to the sovereignty and jurisdiction of the 
territory lying west of the east boundary of New York, and the 
State of New York ceded to Massachusetts the right of pre-emption 
to the soil of all that part of New York lying west of a meridian 
passing through a point in the south boundary of the State, eighty- 
two miles west of the north-east corner of Pennsylvania, except a 
strip one mile wide extending along the east bank of Niagara 
River, from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario. In April, 1788, Massa- 
chusetts contracted to sell this territory to Nathaniel Gorham and 
Oliver Phelps, for 300,000 pounds in the consolidated securities of 
that State, which were at a discount of more than fifty per cent, at 
that time. The rapid advance in the value of these securities ren- 
dered Phelps and Gorham unable to fulfill their contract and a 
large part of the purchase reverted to the State. The part retained 
and subsequently known as the Phelps and Gorham Purchase wiis 
bounded east by the pre-emption line already described, and west 
by a meridian passing through the point at the junction of the 
Canascraga Creek and Genesee River, south to the south line of the 
State, and north from this point along the Genesee River to a point 
two miles north of the village of Canawagus, thence west twelve 
miles, thence northwardly to Lake Ontario, at a distance of twelve 
miles from the Genesee River. On the 12th of March, 1791, the 
State of Massachusetts sold the territory west of the Phelps and 
Gorham Purchase to Robei't Morris, the assignee of Samuel Og- 
den. Mr. Morris sold to the Holland Company all this tract ly- 
ing west of a meridian passing through a point twelve miles west 
of the south-west corner of the Phelps and Gorham Purchase. 

The territory lying between the Holland Purchase and the 
Phelps and Gorham Purchase was called " Morris' Reserve," and 
was sold out to various parties in large tracts. The sale was made 
to the Holland Company before the Indian title was extinguished, 
but with an agreement on the part of Morris that it should be ex- 
tinguished as soon as practicable. This was effected at a treaty 



0ENE8EE COUNTY. 69 



made at Big Tree^ near Geneseo, in September, 1797. In this 
treaty the Indians retained certain reservations in different parts of 
the Purchase, some of which they continue to occupy. Prepara- 
tions were soon made to survey this tract, and a line, run with a 
transit instrument, between Morris's Reserve and the Holland Pur- 
chase, was called the " Transit Line." Theophilus Cazenove, of 
Philadelphia, was the general agent of the Company, and Joseph 
Ellicott the principal surveyor. It was surveyed into ranges num- 
bered from east to west, and into townships about six miles square 
numbered from south to north. Mr. Ellicott contracted with 
Thomas Morris to deliver on the Genesee River or on the shore of 
Lake Ontario, one hundred barrels of pork, fifteen barrels of beef 
and two hundred and seventy barrels of flour, for the supply of the 
surveyors the ensuing year. The survey commenced early in the 
spring of 1798. The principal surveyors were Joseph and Benja- 
min Ellicott, John Thompson, Richard M. Stoddard, George Bur- 
gess, James Dewey, David Ellicott, Aaron Oakford, Jr., Augustus 
Porter, Seth Pease, James Smedley, William Shepherd and George 
Eggleston. Previous to the sale to the Holland Company Mr. 
Morris had sold the Triangle Tract, of 87,000 acres, to LeRoy, 
Bayard and McEvers, and 100,000 acres directly west of this, to 
the State of Connecticut and Sir William Pulteney. On arriving 
at the south line of the Connecticut Tract Mr. Ellicott found that 
the east line of the Holland Purchase would intersect that tract, to 
avoid which he moved west 2.07875 miles, and then run the line 
due north to Lake Ontario. This offset is near the center of the 
town of Stafford. 

Theophilus Cazenove was the general agent of the Holland Com- 
pany until 1799. He was succeeded by Paul Busti, who continued 
in charge of the affairs of the Company until 1824. He was suc- 
ceeded by John J. Vander Kemp, who continued in charge of the 
affairs of the Company until their final settlement. 

The first principal stations of the surveyors were at Williams- 
burgh and Buffalo Creek, but before the close of 1798 the principal 
establishment was located at Stafford, and the locality designated 
ais the " Transit Store House." Mr. James Brisbane was the chief 
clerk. 

In the spring of 1798 a road was laid out from Canawagus to 
Buffalo Creek and to Lewiston, on Niagara River. The road fol- 
lowed the general course of the old Indian trail. The Holland 
Company subscribed $5,000 towards defraying the expense. 

A few settlers located in various places in 1798-9, but the set- 
tlements did not progress with great rapidity until after the open- 
ing of the Land Office in October, 1800. The first crops raised 
upon the Purchase were at the Transit Store House. In the spring 
of 1799 Mr. James Dewey cleared ten acres, a few rods west of 



70 GENE8ES COUNTY. 



the Transit Line, and sowed most of it with oats, but planted a few 
potatoes and some garden vegetables. In the summer of 1799 Mr. 
Busti, the agent, authorized Mr. Ellicott to contract with six reput- 
able individuals to locate themselves on the road between the east- 
ern Transit and Buffalo Creek, about ten miles apart, and to open 
houses of entertainment for travelers, in consideration of which 
they were to have from fifty to one hundred and fifty acres of land 
each, at a liberal time for payment without interest. Mr. Frede- 
rick Walthers accepted the offer and took 150 acres in Township 
12, Range 1, where he had already located. The land included the 
Company's Store House and the site of the present village of Staf- 
ford. Garritt Davis located in Township 13, Range 2, and Asa 
Ransom in Township 12, Range 6, and opened respectable houses 
of entertainment for travelers. The Land Office was at first lo- 
cate at Pine Grove^ the residence of Asa Ransom, but in 1802, 
upon the organization of Genesee County, it was removed to Ba- 
tavia, where it remained until the closing up of the affairs of the 
Company. Joseph Ellicott, the principal surveyor of the Company, . 
received the appointment of local agent and for more than twenty 
years had almost exclusive control of the local business. He was 
an enterprising citizen, and conducted the large and complicated 
business of the Company with marked ability. In 1821 he resigned 
his agency and was succeeded by Jacob S. Otto, who held the office 
until his death in 1827. David E. Evans was Otto's successor 
and continued in office until 1837, when the business of the Com- 
pany was closed up. In 1811 Ebenezer Mix entered the service of 
the Company as a clerk and had control of the sales and subdivi- 
sions of the land. 

In 1835 the Company sold all their remaining lands to a new 
Company, composed chiefly of citizens of Batavia, and a new order 
of things was established. Difficulties immediately arose between 
the new Company and the settlers in various parts of the Purchase, 
and mobs assembled to destroy the land offices. One of the prin- 
cipal causes of disturbance was a rumor that the new Company in- 
tended to exact a certain sum for the renewal of every contract. 
This rule became very obnoxious, and the extra payment was 
called the " Genesee Tariff," and opposition to it was extensively 
resolved upon. The office atMayville, Chautauqua Co., was broken 
open Feb. 6, 1836, the books and papers seized and burned in the 
street. On the 13th of May a report reached Batavia that 700 
armed men were on their way to burn the Land Office at that 
place. Mr. Evans at once fortified the office and collected a force 
of fifty men well armed to protect it. The militia were also called 
out. The mob soon came into town, but learning of the prepara- 
tions that had been made to receive them, concluded that " discre- 
tion was the better part of valor," and went away without offering 



GENESEE COUNTY. 71 



any violence. Between fifty and sixty of the ringleaders were 
prosecuted, but the difficulties were afterwards amicably adjusted 
and the prosecutions dropped. 

The opening of this new region to settlement, under the auspices 
of a rich and liberal company, instituted a new order of things in 
the general history of the County, and was of incalculable benefit 
to the settlers. Mills were erected, roads opened and everything 
done to facilitate settlement and to remove difficulties in the path 
of the settlers. The lands were sold at fair prices and on the most 
liberal terms. The affairs of the Company, both at their general 
and local offices, were conducted by gentlemen of liberal culture, 
enlarged views and humane hearts. In consequence of the richness 
of the lands and the liberal terms upon which it was offered by the 
Company, the whole region rapidly filled up with an industrious, 
intelligent and enterprising population. Many of the first settlers 
afterwards occupied high official positions and became known 
throughout the State for their ability and integrity. 

The location of the principal Land Office at Batavia converted it 
at once into a place of business, and the subsequent selection of the 
village as the County Seat of Genesee County, made it for many 
years one of the most important places in Western New York. 
Several other land offices were afterwards established, but they 
were all subordinate to the one at Batavia. In 1850 an act was 
passed directing the original field notes and maps to be deposited 
in the Secretary's office for preservation and as legal proofs. Pre- 
vious to this it was found necessary in closing up the affairs of the 
Company to obtain evidence of the death of certain of the original 
proprietors, and an act was passed directing the appointment of a 
special commissioner to visit Europe and obtain the desired evi- 
dence. Julius Rhoades was appointed to execute that trust. 

In the summer of 1826 Genesee County was the scene of an ex- 
citement seldom equaled, and the results of which were wide- 
spread and lasting. William Morgan, a Royal Arch Mason, a na- 
tive of Virginia, commenced the preparation of a work disclosing 
the secrets of Masonry, to be published by David C. Miller, a 
printer of Batavia. When this fact became known to members of 
the Masonic Order, great excitement was created and measures 
were taken to suppress the book. A stranger was introduced to 
the printer, who, under pretense of friendship, labored to gain an 
interest in its publication and thus gain possession of the manu- 
script. This scheme failing, Morgan was arrested on a civil suit 
and gave bail ; but in August his bail surrendered him to the 
Sheriff and he was imprisoned over the Sabbath, and in the mean 
time his lodgirgs were searched and seme of his papers seized. An 
attempt was also made to burn the office where the book was to be 
printed. On Sunday, September 10th, a warrant was obtained at 



72 GENESEE COUNTY. 



Canandaigua by Nicholas G. Chesebro, for the arrest of Morgan at 
Batavia, on a charge of stealing a shirt and cravat, which he had 
borrowed of E. C. Kingsley. He was arrested the next day and 
taken in a stage coach to Canandaigua, where he was discharged by 
the justice who issued the warrant. He was immediately re-ar- 
rested on a claim of two dollars for a tavern bill, and though he 
took off his coat that the officer might levy upon it for payment, 
he was lodged in jail. On the evening of the 12th, while the jailor 
was absent, his wife, tinder the advice of Chesebro, released Mor- 
gan, as the claim upon which he was held had been paid by Loton 
Lauson, a pretended friend. As Morgan passed out of the jail he 
■was seized by Lauson and a man by the name of Foster, gagged, 
thrust into a carriage, and driven towards Rochester. This was 
the last seen of Morgan, except by Masons, and whatever else is 
known was ascertained by judicial inquiry. " It is now known that 
he was carried by relays of horses, and through the agency of many 
different individuals, in bondage and secrecy, until he was securely 
deposited in the magazine of Fort Niagara, at the mouth of Niaga- 
ra River. This unprecedented outrage, though committed with 
such boldness, was at the . same time guarded by so many precau- 
tions, that it was impossible for a long time to penetrate the veil of 
secrecy with which the conspirators had concealed their move- 
mentSi" — [Hammond^ s Pol. His. N. Y. 

The disappearance of Morgan excited suspicion and led to an in- 
vestigation. Citizens of Batavia, LeRoy, and other places along 
the route of the abduction, held meetings and appointed commit- 
tees which brought to light the facts as stated above, and an intense 
excitement followed. Several persons were tried for participating 
in the abduction. Some of them plead guilty and thus prevented 
that extended judicial inquiry which, it was hoped, would bring to 
light facts that would reveal the fate of Morgan. Delays finally 
barred further prosecution except for murder. The excitement fol- 
lowing the investigation, at first directed against the immediate par- 
ticipants in the outrage, was soon turned against the whole Masonic 
fraternity. The belief that a powerful organization, bound by se- 
cret oaths, with their members occupying high official positions, 
would perpetrate a crime of such a magnitude, excited alarm and 
led to the organization of an Anti-Masonie party. The excitement 
spread through the State and country ; members of the fraternity 
seceded in large numbers, and a systematic effort was made to crush 
the order. The intense feeling continued, and the mutual recrimi- 
nations of the parties entered into all the political, religious and so- 
cial relations of society, until about 1832, when other political ques- 
tions arose, and the excitement gradually died away. 

Immediately after the abduction of Morgan an attempt was made 
to obtain the manuscript of Morgan's " Revelations," then in the 



GENESEE COUNTY. 73 



hands of Miller, the printer, but without success. In September, 
1827, Jesse French, Roswell Wilcox and James Hurlburt were 
tried and convicted for assault and battery upon David C. Miller, 
and for false imprisonment and riot. In the evidence before the 
Court it appeared that on the 12th of September, French, then hold- 
ing the office of constable, came into the printing office of Miller 
and arrested him upon a writ issued by Justice Bartow, of LeRoy. 
Miller was taken into a carriage and driven off, attended by a large 
party armed with clubs, conspicuous among whom were Wilcox 
and Hurlburt. At Stafford he was taken into a Masonic lodge 
room, and efforts made to frighten him by threatening him with 
the fate of Morgan. When taken out of the lodge room a large 
number of his friends had collected and he was permitted to see 
counsel and to learn the nature of the suit brought against him, 
which was a civil action for debt. Bail was refused and repeated 
demands were made to be taken immediately before a magistrate, 
but the demands were unheeded. From Stafford to LeRoy he was 
closely guarded by a large number of armed men and attended by 
an equally large number of his friends. Upon his arrival in LeRoy 
he insisted on going before the magistrate, and assisted by his 
crowd of friends was enabled to do so, taking the unwilling consta- 
ble along with him. After a short delay he was discharged. On 
his way back to Batavia, under escort of a number of his friends 
who had followed him to LeRoy, efforts were made to re-arrest 
him, which was prevented by his friends. French was sentenced 
to one year's imprisonment in the county jail, Wilcox to six months 
and Hurlburt to three months. James Granson was tried and ac- 
quitted. Great excitement followed these events and a civil war 
was anticipated. At the celebration of St. John's Day, following 
the abduction, an incident occurred that shows the excited state of 
mind in the community. During the day, Frederick Follett, a Ma- 
son, while attending to his duties as Marshal of the day, suddenly 
found himself surrounded by an infuriated crowd of armed men, 
evidently determined to kill him. He drew his sword, put spurs 
to his horse and succeeded in escaping from the crowd, though two 
men had grasped the bridle. For some time Masonry was at a 
low ebb, but for several years it has been gaining in influence and 
popularity until many of our best and most talented men are num- 
bered among its members. We have endeavored to give the main 
- facts in relation to the abduction of Morgan, and leave it for the 
reader to form his own opinion as to the degree of criminality in- 
volved in the transaction. The victims of the outrages were men 
whose personal character would not add great weight to the revela- 
tions made. 

The Genesee County Agricultural Society was formed in 1840. 
They have a fine location in the village of Batavia for their Fairs. 



74 GENESEE COUNTY. 



The grounds are provided with suitable buildings and a half mile 
track upon which to try the speed of the horses. Fairs are held 
annually and the exhibition of live stock, farm products, agricultural 
implements. &c., indicate a good degree of interest on the part of 
the farmers. The Fairs have generally proved a success. A 
Horse Fair was held in July, 1869. The present officers of the 
Society are Addison Foster, President; O.R.Clark, Secretary; 
Jerome Thompson, Treasurer. 

In closing this historical sketch of the County, the writer would 
be glad to give an extended report of the men and means furnished 
to the Government to aid in suppressing the " Great Rebellion." 
The State Census Reports are incomplete and unreliable, and other 
data are not at hand by which we can determine definitely the 
number who enlisted. Sufficient is known however to show that 
Genesee County was not behind the other counties of Western 
New York in furnishing her quotas under the various calls for 
troops. From the various towns in the County the loyal and pa- 
triotic rallied in defense of their country, as the battle fields and 
prison pens of the South abundantly testify. While many left the 
comforts and endearing associations of home for the hardships and 
privations of the camp and the battle field, those who remained be- 
hind were not unmindful of them, but contributed lil^erally for the 
support of the various organizations whose object was to relieve so 
far as possible the rigors of camp life. May the time not be far 
distant when some competent pen shall record in an appropriate 
manner the brave deeds of our " Boys in Blue."

ALAJBAJMLAf named from the State of Alabama, and signi- 
fying, " Here we rest," was formed from Shelby (Orleans Co.) and 
Pembroke, as " Gerrysville," April 17, 1826. It was the intention 
to name it in honor of David Gary, one of the early settlers, but 
instead it was named for Elbridge Gerry, Ex- Vice President. Its 
name was changed April 21, 1828. A part of "Wales was annexed 
in 1832. It is the north-west corner town of the County. The 
surface is level or gently undulating. The north and west portions 
are covered by marshes, forming a part of the Tonawanda Swamp. 
Oak Orchard Creek flows across the north-east corner, and Tona- 
wanda Creek across the south-west corner. The Tonawanda Canal 
Feeder extends through the north-west part. A limestone terrace, 
from 50 to 75 feet high, extends across the south part of the town. 
Tonawanda Creek flows down this declivity in a perpendicular cas- 
cade, known as Tonawanda Falls, furnishing a fine water-power. 
The Tonawanda Indian Reservation embraces the south-west part. 
Near the center of the north border of the town are the " Oak Or- 
chard Acid Springs," situated a few rods from the banks of the 
Creek. There are nine of these springs, all of which are situated 
within a circle of fifty rods. They issue from mounds, evidently 
formed by the action of the water, and elevated from two and a 
half to four feet above the surrounding surface. No two of these 
springs are alike, and in one instance three springs issue from a 
single mound within ten feet of each other, and yet the waters are 
essentially different. The following is an analysis of the three prin- 
cipal springs, the first by Profs. Silliman and Norton, the others 
by Prof. E. Emmons :

Large quantities of this water are bottled and sold annually for 
medicinal purposes. 

The soil of the town is a gravelly and sandy loam, with a clay 
subsoil. 

Alabama Center (Alabama p. o.) is situated near the center of 
the town, and contains two churches, viz., Methodist and Baptist, a 
hotel, several stores and mechanic shops, and about thirty dwell- 
ings. 

Wheatville, (p. v.) in the north-east part, contains a F. W. Bap" 
tist church, a store and about a dozen dwellings. 

Smithville, (South Alabama p. o.) in the eastern part, contains a 
Baptist church, several mechanic shops and about twenty-five 
dwellings. 

The first settlement was made in 1806 by James Walsworth, 
who had previously spent a few years in Orleans County. Among 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 77 

Other early settlers were Eobert Harper, Jesse Lund, Dr. Smith, 
from Vermont ; and Peter, Joseph and James Holmes, from Dela- 
ware County. The first births were those of twin children of James 
Walsworth, in 1806 ; the first death was that of an unknown trave- 
ler, at the house of Mr. Walsworth, in 1808. He was buried with- 
out a coffin or religious services. The first school was taught by 
Henry Howard, in 1817 ; the first inn was kept by James Wals- 
worth, in 1808 ; and the first store by Nahum Loring, in 1838. 
The first saw mill was erected in 1824, by Samuel Whitcomb at 
Wheatville. The first Church (F. W. Bap.) was formed in the east 
part of the town, in 1824, by Elder Samuel Whitcomb, the first 
preacher. 

The population of the town m 1865 was 1,839, and its area 27,- 
904 acres. 

The number of school districts in which there are school houses 
is 11, employing the same number of teachers. The number of 
children of school age is 681 ; the number attending school, 566 ; 
the average attendance, 261, and the amount expended for school 
purposes during the year ending September 30, 1868, was |3,- 
074.53. 

ALJEXANDEJRf named in honor of Alexander Eea, the 
first settler, and for several years a State Senator, was formed from 
Batavia, June 8, 1812. It lies on the south border of the County, 
west of the center. The surface in the south part and in the center 
is hilly, and in the north part rolling. The summits in the south- 
west are from 200 to 250 feet above the valleys. The streams are 
Tonawanda Creek, Little Tonawanda, Huron and Bowen's Creeks, 
and several smaller streams. Tonawanda Creek flows north 
through the center of the town. The soil upon the hills is a gravelly 
loam with a clay sub-soil, and in the valleys a rich alluvium. The 
Attica branch of the New York Central R. R., and the Buffalo, N. 
Y. & Erie, pass through the town near the center. 

Alexander, (p. v.) situated on Tonawanda Creek, a little south of 
the center of the town, was incorporated April 24, 1834. It con- 
tains three churches, a hotel, a seminary, a flouring mill, several 
stores and mechanic shops and about 300 inhabitants. It is a sta- 
tion on the Attica branch of the N. Y. C. R. R. 

The Genesee and Wyoming Seminary was founded in 1834, 
through the efforts and liberality of Samuel Benedict and Henry 
Hawkins. In 1845 Mr. Hawkins bequeathed to the Institution 
$4,000, his private library and geological cabinet. The Institution 
has a good library, cabinet of natural history, and buildings to ac- 
commodate several hundred students. It is in a flourishing condi- 
tion. 

Brookville, (p. o.) in the east part, is a hamlet.

The first settlement was made by Alexander Rea, in 1802. He 
was an early surveyor of the Holland Company and 'became the 
founder of Alexander village, where he erected a saw mill in 1804. 
John Olney, Lewis Disbrow, George Darrow and William Black- 
man came in the same year. Among the other early settlers who 
came in within a few years were several by the name of Hawkins, 
all of whom were enterprising and successful business men. Their 
names were Rodolphus, Harry, Henry, Rensselaer and Timothy. 
Elijah Root, Jr., Lillie Fisher, Royal Moulton, Ezekiel Lewis, 
Seba Brainard, Stephen Day, John Riddle, Caleb and Emory Blod- 
gett, William Parish and Ezekiel Churchill came in at an early day. 

The first birth was that of a child of Mr. Blackman ; the first 
death that of William Whitney, killed in 1803, by the fall of a tree. 
The first school was taught by Mr. Jones, in the winter of 1805-6, 
at Alexander village. The first marriage was that of Benjamin 
Moulton and Eunice Olney. Harvey Hawkins kept the first inn, 
in 1807, and the first store in 1809. William Adams built the first 
grist mill, in 1807. The first frame house was erected by John and 
Samuel Latham, in 1810. Charles Chaffee was the first physician. 
The first religious services were held in 1805, by Elder Burton. 
In 1811 a public library was established with Alexander Rea, Har- 
vey Hawkins, Seba Brainard, Samuel Latham, Henry Hawkins, 
Noah North and Ezra W. Osborn, as trustees. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 1,828, its area is 22,735 
acres. 

The number of school districts is 12, employing 12 teachers. 
The number of the school population is 544 ; the number attending 
school, 408 ; the average attendance, 218, and the amount expended 
for school purposes during the vear ending September 30, 1868, 
was $2,731.02. 

BAT A VIA was formed March 30, 1802. Alexander, Bergen, 
Bethany and Pembroke were taken off in 1812, and Elba and a 
part of Stafford in 1820. It is the central town of the County. 
Its surface is level or gently undulating. A limestone ridge, form- 
ing a terrace from 20 to 50 feet high, extends east and west through 
the north part of the town. Tonawanda Creek flows northward 
from the line of Alexander to Batavia village, where it turns west- 
ward and flows through the town near the center to the west bor- 
der. Bowen's Creek is the other principal stream. The soil is a 
deep, fertile, sandy and gravelly loam, with a clay sub-soil. 

Batavia, (p. v.) situated in the east part, on Tonawanda Creek, 
was incorporated April 23, 1823. It contains the County buildings.

lie ; a female seminary, union school, three newspaper offices, three 
banks, a large number of hotels, stores and manufactories, and be- 
tween 5,000 and 6,000 inhabitants. It is the most important vil- 
lage between Rochester and Buffalo, and from it seven railroads 
radiate to different parts. The streets are broad, bordered by 
beautiful rows of shade trees and lighted with gas. Main street is 
one of the most beautiful and best shaded streets in the country. 
The village has more miles of good flag-stone sidewalks than any 
other village of the size in the State. 

The State Institution for the Blind occupies a beautiful site, about 
half a mile north of the Court House. Dr. A. D. Lord, the Su- 
perintendent of the Institution, kindly furnished most of the follow- 
ing facts respecting its history : The law for its establishment was 
passed April 27, 1865. This act provided for the appointment of 
five commissioners to select a site for the Institution and three to 
superintend the erection of the buildings, and a Board of Trustees 
to take charge of the Institution after the buildings were completed. 
The Commissioners first named were E. W. Leavenworth, B. F. 
Manierre, James Furguson, O. K. Woods and M. M. Southworth. 
After examining several sites offered, the Commissioners selected 
that upon which the Institution now stands. The village of Batavia 
presented to the State this site, comprising fifty acres of land, 
which was purchased at a cost of over 110,000 and is now valued 
at 113,000. The grading and excavating were commenced May 
4th, 1866. The first contract was let to the builder, Mr. Henry T. 
Rogers, of Rochester, July 18th, and the corner stone was laid with 
appropriate ceremonies, September 6th of the same year. On this 
occasion Dr. S. G. Howe, of Boston, delivered an address. The 
following documents were deposited in the corner stone : Copies 
of city and country newspapers; the programme of exercises; copy 
of act establishing the Institution ; a Continental bank note of 135, 
and a Provincial note of the Province of New York, for two shill- 
ings ; a 15 bank note of the Bank of Attica, with an historical sketch 
of the Bank, and a specimen of postal currency ; pamphlet contain- 
ing a sketch of Batavia, by William Seaver ; a list of subscribers 
for the grounds upon which the buildings are erected ; copy of the 
proceedings of the first Court held in Batavia, in 1803 ; photographs 
of village Trustees, &c., and a large sheet of parchment upon which 
were engraved the names of the Building Commissioners, Trustees 
of the Institution and State and Federal officers. The contracts of 
the builder on the main edifice were completed May 31st, 1868, 
and it was formally delivered to the Trustees, July 15th. The build- 
ings are of brick, three stories high above the basement, which is of 
blue limestone, quarried on the site, upon which rests a broad belt 
of Lockport stone. The quoins and window dressings are of the 
same kind of stone. The buildings front the south and consist of

four structures, a front and rear center building and two wings con- 
nected by corridors, 14 by 32 feet, containing the halls and stair- 
cases. The center buildings are 50 by 62 and 60 by 76 feet, and 
the wings 46 by 106 feet. The length of the entire front is 206 
feet, and the distance from front to rear, including portico, is 185 
feet. The wings present a front of 106 feet. The basement con- 
tains the laundry, bathing rooms, water closets, heating apparatus, 
&c. The other stories are conveniently arranged for the officers of 
the Institution and assistants, and school and sleeping rooms for 
150 pupils. The steam heating apparatus was furnished by Baker 
& Smith, of New York. Rain water from the roof is conducted to 
a cistern holding 5,000 barrels, from which it is pumped by steam 
into tanks located in the attic of the rear building, thence distributed 
to all parts of the building where needed. A. well about sixty feet 
deep, six feet in diameter inside the walls and capable of furnishing 
4,500 gallons per hour of excellent water, is upon the premises. 

The amount paid to Mr. Rogers, the builder, for 

the principal structure, was $194,183.35

To the Commissioners for the erection of the building, Messrs. 
John Fisher, of Batavia ; John Van Horn, of Lockport, and L. A. 
Haywood, of Warsaw, the people of the State are under lasting ob- 
ligations for their fidelity in executing the important trust com- 
mitted to them ; and especially to Mr. Fisher for his almost con- 
stant oversight of the work from the beginning. Great credit is 
also due to the contractor, Mr. Rogers, for the excellence of the 
materials employed in every part of the building, and for the 
thorough manner in which all was executed, and especially for the 
promptness with which it was completed according to his contract. 

On the 20th of July last, Dr. A. D. Lord, for the past twelve 
years Superintendent of the Ohio Institute for the Blind, accepted 
the office of Superintendent. He took charge of the building on the 
18th of August. The school was opened the 2d of September and 
has been in successful operation since, with about 70 pupils enrolled. 
The system of instruction pursued is similar to that generally

adopted by the best institutions for the blind in this country, in- 
cluding a thorough course of training in the common branches of 
an English education and most of the higher branches. Instruction 
is also given in vocal and instrumental music. No provision has 
yet been made for teaching trades to young men, but the girls and 
younger boys are taught several kinds of useful and fancy work. 
Six teachers are employed in the Institution. Everything through- 
out the building is kept in the most perfect order, and the grounds, 
when graded and ornamented according to the plan proposed by Dr. 
Lord, will present one of the most attractive spots in the State. 

Mrs. Bryan's Female Seminary is a boarding school for young

The village of Batavia was surveyed in 1800, and laid out in lots, 
and in 1801 Abel Rowe, Stephen Russell and David McCracken 
took contracts for lots. Mr. Ellicott fixed upon this site as the 
place for the Land Office, and it was removed here in 1802. The 
formation of Genesee County and the selection of this place as the 
County Seat made the village the most important place upon the 
Holland Purchase for several years. Previous to 1802 the place 
was known as " The Bend." Mr. Rowe became the first inn keeper 
in 1801, and Mr. Russell the second one at the same place. Mc- 
Cracken was the first physician upon the Purchase. In February, 

1802, Mr. Ellicott employed John Lamberton and Mayo to 

cut a road through the village. The contract was made at Ran- 
som's, Feb. 20th. They came to Batavia on foot, one of them 
bringing on his back a tent, the other a keg of whisky. The road 
was one hundred feet wide and two miles long. The price received 
for this work was twelve dollars per acre. It was cleared off dur- 
ing the summer by the owners of the lots along the road. The 
Buffalo road was the only one except Indian trails on the Purchase. 
A post office was established in 1802 and James Brisbane appointed 
the first postmaster. The mail was carried' G'uce in two weeks, 
sometimes on foot and sometimes on horseback. Mr. William 
Seaver, now a resident of Batavia, performed the duties of post- 
master from Jan. 13, 1823, to August 6thi 1842. 

The first newspaper in Batavia, The Genesee Intelligencer, was 
printed in 1807. It was a half sheet, of medium size, and contained 
two or three columns of advertisements for the Holland Land Com- 
pany, a notice of an elopement and of a runaway apprentice boy.

for whose apprehension a bag of bran was offered as a reward. 
The subscription list numbered about one hundred. 

An Arsenal was erected in 1810 or 1811, for protection against 
incursions of British and Indians. It was constructed of logs, and 
about the close of the war the present stone structure was erected 
near the site. It is now in a dilapidated condition. 

The first Trustees of the village, elected in 1823, were David IT. 
Chandler, David E, Evans, Nathan Follett, Simeon Cummings and 
Silas Finch. Trumbull Gary was Treasurer, and Parley Paine, 
Collector. 

Among the early settlers whose names have not been mentioned 
were Isaac Sutherland, Gen. Worthy L. Churchill, Col. William 
Rumsey, John Thomson, John Lamberton, David E. Evans, James 
W. Stevens, Richard Abbey, Jedediah Crosby, Gideon Elliott, 
Cotton Leach, Sam'l E, Geer, Benajah Worden and Wm. Hunger. 

In a letter to Mr. Busti, the general agent of the Company at 
Philadelphia, Mr. Ellicott, in speaking of the selection he had made 
for the location of the Land Office, at the " Bend of the Tonewanta," 
says. May 30, 1801, that one lot was sold and one house built, and 
he had decided to call the place " Bustia " or " Bustiville." Mr. 
Busti objected to the name and it was called Batavia, the name of 
the Republic to which the Dutch proprietors belonged. Mr. Elli- 
cott informs him that the land sales are going on encouragingly and 
that in one place on the " Great Road," within the space of ten 
miles, thirteen improvements have been made. 

The first marriage was that of Wm. Leston and Lavinia How, 

and the first death that of Harris, in 1807. Hannah Austin 

taught the first school, in 1806 ; James Brisbane kept the first store, 
in 1802. Mr. Ellicott erected the first saw mill, in 1801, and the 
first grisf mill, in 1804, for the Holland Company, on Tonawanda 
Creek. 

The first town meeting of Batavia was held in March, 1803, at 
the house of Peter Vandeventer. David Culley was chosen Town 
Clerk ; Peter Vandeventer, Supervisor ; Enos Kellogg, Asa Ran- 
som and Alexander Rea, Assessors ; Alexander Rea, Isaac Suther- 
land and Suffrenus Maybee, Commissioners of Highways ; David 
Culley and Benjamin Porter, Overseers of the Poor ; Abel Rowe, 
Collector; John Mudge, Levi Felton, Rufus Hart, Abel Rowe, 
Seymour Kellogg and Hugh Howell, Constables. The Pathmasters 
were Martin Middaugh, Timothy Hopkins, Orlando Hopkins, Ben- 
jaa.in Morgan, Rufus Hart, Lovell Churchill, Jabez Warren, Wil- 
liam Blackman, Samuel Clark, Gideon Dunham, Jonathan Willard, 
Thomas Layton, Hugh Howell, Benjamin Porter and William 
Walsworth. At this meeting there was some legislation of which 
the following is a specimen : A bounty of five dollars on wolves, 
half price for whelps, and fifty cents for foxes and wildcats. At 



GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 83 

the second town meeting, held in 1804, a law was passed imposing 
a fine of 15.00 on any person living in any other county or town, 
who should drive cattle into the town of Batavia to be kept. This 
was to preserve the fine feed in the openings, on the Lockport and 
Batavia road, for the use of the settlers. Settlers further east had 
been in the habit of driving cattle there to pasture. No person 
v^as licensed to keep a tavern who had not a securely inclosed yard 
of sufficient size to contain all the " sleds, sleighs, wagons, carts, and 
other carriages that he or she may have at his or her tavern at any 
one time, for entertainment or refreshment." 

The first general election after the organization of the town was 
held in April, 1803. The vote for Senator is reported as follows : 
Caleb Hyde, 146 ; Vincent Matthews, 5, The next year the vote 
for Governor was, 111 for Morgan Lewis and 11 for Aaron Burr ; 
for Lieutenant Governor, John Broome received 115 and Oliver 
Phelps 7 votes. 

From some reminiscences of Wm. H. Bush, one of the pioneers 
of Batavia, we learn tnat in May, 1806, there were less than 100 
acres of land cleared on the Buffalo road within a distance of six 
miles of BaLavia. On his arrival here Mr. Bush built a log house, 
covered it with elm bark and laid a floor of slabs and hemlock 
boards. As the cabin had no chimney the cooking for the family 
was done in the open air by a fire built against a stump. This was 
continued during the entire summer. Mr. B. immediately com- 
menced the erection of a saw mill which was completed about the 
middle of October. This was kept running from daylight till dark 
during the winter, and proved to be a good investment. The set- 
tlers were ready to stock the mill with logs to be sawed on shares, 
and there was a ready market for all the lumber the mill could cut. 
Before cold weather came on Mr. Bush built a stick chimney, laid 
a better floor, plastered the cracks between the logs and cleared 
one acre of land around his house. To pay for his mill he had sold 
everything except his scanty household furniture. In 1808 he built 
a machine shop, and a carding and cloth dressing establishment, the 
first upon the Holland Purchase. The first wool was carded at this 
establishment on the 6th day of June, 1808; it belonged to George 
Lathrop, of Bethany. In February, 1809, the first piece of cloth 
dressed upon the Purchase was dressed at this mill, for Theophilus 
Crocker. Customers came from a great distance in all directions, 
. extending west as far as Niagara River. The largest quantity of 
wool carded for one man was seventy pounds, and the smallest, four 
pounds. The whole amount carded during the first season was 3,- 
029 pounds. It was no small task to get together the machinery 
for this pioneer establishment. Hand shears were procured from 
the Shakers at New Lebanon, a press plate from a furnace in Onon- 
daga County, a screw and box from Canaan, Connecticut, and a dye 



84 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 

kettle, press papers, &c., at Albany. The cost of transporting 
these things was mor6 than two hundred dollars. In 1809 Mr. 
Bush erected a grist- mill, and in 1817 a paper mill and a distillery. 
He made the first ream of paper that was manufactured west of 
the Genesee River. This early pioneer was successful in his enter- 
prises, accumulated a competence and enjoyed a serene old age. 

Previous to the erection of the grist mill at Batavia in 1804, the 
people were sometimes without bread or anything to make it of. 
Flour was brought on pack horses before the roads were of such a 
character as to allow a better means of conveyance. 

Ebenezer Mix became a resident of Batavia in 1809. He was a 
native of New Haven, Connecticut, and worked at his trade, that of 
a mason, for a while, then became a school teacher, and subsequently 
a student at law, and in 1811 entered into the service of the Hol- 
land Company as clerk in their Land Office, where he remained for 
twenty-seven years. He possessed extraordinary talents as a prac- 
tical mathematician, and a memory of localities, boundaries and 
topography, which mapped the Holland Purchase upon his mind. 
He was eminently useful not only to his principals but to the set- 
tlers upon the Purchase. Ebenezer Cary was an early merchant, 
of Batavia. He was one of the surveyors of the Purchase and 
clerk at the Transit Store House previous to his removal to Bata- 
via. He died in 1825. Trumbull Gary came in and settled in 
1805. He occupied many positions of honor and trust, and after a 
long and successful life, died June 20, 1869, at the age of 82. 

In 1822 a Mr. Farnsworth was convicted of forging United 
States Land Warrants and sentenced to be hanged on the 20th of 
September. A large crowd assembled to witness the execution, 
when to their great disgust the President granted a reprieve for six 
months. The murmurings of the disappointed multitude were loud 
and deep, and before the expiration of the six months respite, he 
was pardoned, as- it appeared that he had committed no crime 
against the Government. 

In the fall of 1820, Mr. Busti, the agent of the Holland Company, 
was visiting Batavia, when a Presbyterian clergyman called on him 
and insisted on a donation of land to each society of his persuasion, 
then formed on the Purchase, Mr. Busti treated the gentleman 
with due courtesy but manifested no disposition to accede to his re- 
quest. The minister persevered in his solicitations until Mr. B, 
left the office to go to tea, and followed him to the piazza of Mr. 
Elliott's residence and renewed his application. Mr. Busti's pa- 
tience was nearly exhausted and he at length replied : " Yes, Mr. 
R., I will give a tract of one hundred acres to a religious society in 
every town on the Purchase, and this is Jinis" This was not satis- 
factory, he wanted the pledge for the benefit of the Presbyterians. 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 85 

But " to save contention " it was given to " the first religious so- 
ciety in every town." The zealous clergyman hastened home and 
sent out runners to rally the Presbyterians in the various towns in 
the vicinity, to organize and thus secure the land. The Land Office 
was soon flooded with petitions from the various societies, some of 
which were extremely ludicrous. One of these was directed to 
" General Poll Busti," upon seeing which he insisted that it could 
not be from a religious society, for all religious societies read their 
Bibles and knew that P-o-doubleJ did not spell PauL" Notwith- 
standing the urgent demands made by the various societies, Mr. 
Ellicott, upon whom devolved the duty of carrying out the promise 
of Mr. Busti, delayed for some time to convey the lands demanded. 
In some instances the whole one hundred acres was given to a sin- 
gle society and in others to two, three, and sometimes four different 
denominations. 

The first church organized in Batavia was Congregational, in 
1809, though it soon after adopted the Presbyterian form of govern- 
ment. It was organized by Rev. Royal Phelps, with twelve mem- 
bers. The following are their names : Silas Chapin, David An- 
derson, Ezekiel Fox, Solomon Kingsley, Eleanor Smith, Elizabeth 
Mathers, Elizabeth Peck, Esther Kellogg, Hulda Wright, Patience 
Kingsley, Esther Kingsley and Polly Barnard. On the 24th of 
September, 1809, Rev. Mr. Phelps preached in Jesse Rumsey's 
barn and administered the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper for the 
first time in this place. The first Trustees of the Society were 
Ebenezer Gary, Ebenezer Seymour and Benjamin Porter. Their 
church edifice was erected in 1824, and a bell weighing 1,000 
pounds, cast in Batavia by James Cochran, was placed upon it. 

St. James Church (Protestant Episcopal) was organized June 
6th, 1815. John Hickcox and Samuel Benedict were the Church 
Wardens. Measures were immediately taken to erect a church 
but it was not completed until 1822, The present church edifice 
was erected in 1835. 

The First M, E. Church of Batavia was organized Dec. 15, 1819, 
with Thomas McCulley, Samuel F. Geer, Jeremiah Bennett, Sey- 
mour Ensign and Silas Hollister, Trustees, The first class was 
formed iu 1817, consisting of fourteen members, only one of whom 
is now living. The society worshiped for several years in the 
West School House of Batavia. In 1823 a stone church was erect- 
ed in the west part of the village and is now used for a malt house. 
In 1841 a new church was erected on Jackson street, now known 
as Terry Hall. A very fine brick church is now nearly completed, 
and when finished will be the finest church building in the County. 
It is of the Norman style of architecture, 50 by 90 feet, with a lec- 
ture room in the rear 38 by 50 feet. The spire is 160 feet in hight. 
The structure is an ornament to the village and highly creditable

to the enterprise and good taste of the society erecting it. Rev 
S. Hunt is the present pastor. 

The Baptist Church was organized in 1835, with Richard Covell, 
Jr., John Dorman, Wm. Blossom, Wm, D, Popple and Calvin 
Foster, Trustees. Rev. J. Clark was the first pastor. Their house 
of worship was erected in 1835.

Samuel Lincoln commenced the first settlement at Bergen vil- 
lage in 1805. He was from Connecticut, as were also most of the 
other settlers. Jedediah Crosby, David Potter, William White, 
James Landen and David Franklin came in and settled in 1805-6. 
Simeon Pierson located here in 1808. 

The first birth was that of Luther Crosby, in 1806 ; the first inn 
was kept at Bergen Corners in 1810, by Samuel Butler ; the first

first saw mill in the north-west part of the town, in 1811. Titus 
Wilcox, from Connecticut, taught the first school, in the winter of 
1807-8, at Bergen Corners. Deacon Levi Ward and his sons, 
from Connecticut, established public religious services soon after 
their arrival, and in 1807 or 1808 a Church (Presb.) was organized.

IBYRON^f named from Lord Byron, was formed from Bergen, 
April 4, 1820. It lies on the north border of the County, east of 
the center. The surface is gently undulating, with a slight inclina- 
tion towards the north. Black Creek flows north to near the center 
of the town, receiving as tributaries Bigelow and Spring ('reeks, 
then turns and flows north-east into Bergen. The soil is a fine 
quality of sand and gravelly loam. A sulphur spring, from which 
issues carburetted hydrogen gas, is found on Black Creek, a little 
north of Byron. An acid spring, known as the " Sour Spring," is 
found in the south-west part of the town. This spring issues from 
a hillock about 230 feet long, 100 feet broad and elevated about 
four or five feet above the plain. The strength of the acid is in- 
creased by drouth, and in some places it is quite concentrated and 
nearly dry in its combination with the charred vegetable coat 
which everywhere covers the hillock to the depth of from five to 
forty inches.

nius Walker, with his father, from Berkshire Co., Mass., settled on 
lots 41 and 29, in July, 1811. Nathan Holt, from Otsego Co., and 
Asa Merrill, from Oneida Co., came in in 1810. 

Mr. Merrill located on lots 162 and 174, and still resides there. 
He started from Oneida County for his new home with two yoke of 
oxen and a sled. Soon after crossing Cayuga Lake, the snow dis- 
appeared, and with his family he stopped at a tavern and tried in 
vain to procure a wagon with which to proceed on his journey. 
At length he went to the woods and, with the aid of the landlord, 
cut an oak tree about three feet in diameter, and having sawed off 
blocks for wheels, a vehicle was constructed upon which he placed 
his sled and other loading and came to Byron. He set out an or- 
chard of about seven acres, in which is a tree eight feet two inches 
in circumference, the branches covering a space seventeen paces 
in diameter. 

Andrew Dibble, from Massachusetts, purchased lot 7 in 1811, 
and located with his family in 1816. Levi Fisk, from Franklin 
County, Mass., settled near Byron Center in 1811. 

Captain James Pendall was an early settler on lot 78, where 
Erastus Cash now resides. In front of the house stands a large 
willow tree with a double trunk, each about three and a half feet in 
diameter. This tree was once a riding whip which Mr. Pendall 
used on his return from LeRoy. It was set in the ground by Mrs. 
Pendall and has produced the present tree. 

Paul Ballard, from Oneida Co., settled in the south-west part of 
the town in 1812. 

The first birth was that of a son of Elisha Taylor, in 1809 ; the 
first marriage that of Samuel Montgomery and Polly Parks, in 
1811 ; and the first death that of a son of Mr. Haskins. Thester 
T. Holbrook taught the first school, in 1810-11 ; Ira Newburg 
kept the first inn, in 1815 ; and Amos Hewett the first store, in 
1813. William Shepard erected the first saw mill, in 1813, and 
Asa Williams the first grist mill, in 1814. The first religious ser- 
vices were held in 1809 by Rev. Royal Phelps, of the Presbyterian 
Church, from Cayuga County. The first Church (Bap.) was or- 
ganized in 1810 by Elder Benjamin M. Parks. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 1,645^ its area is 20,- 
531 acres. 

There are nine school districts, employing the same number of 
teachers. The number of the school population is 557 ; the num- 
ber attending school, 410 ; the average attendance, 204, and the 
amount expended for school purposes during the year ending Sep- 
tember 30, 1868, was 13,507.99. 

JDAJRIBW was formed from Pembroke, February 10, 1832. 
It is the south-west corner town of the County, The surface is

hilly in the south and rolling in the north. Murder Creek flows 
through the town from south to north, in the eastern part. Crook- 
ed and Eleven Mile Creeks are the other principal streams. The 
soil in the north is a sandy and gravelly loam, and in the south a 
clayey loam underlaid by limestone. The Buffalo, New York and 
Erie R. R. extends through the town from east to west, a little 
south of the center. The N. Y. C. R. R. extends through the 
north-west corner. 

Darien Center, (p. v.) formerly called King^s Corners, is situated 
a little south of the center of the town, near the B. N. Y. & Erie 
R. R., and contains a church, several mechanic shops and about 25 
dwellings. 

Darien City, (Darien p. o.) in the east part, on Murder Creek, 
contains a church, a hotel, a mill, several mechanic shops and about 
40 dwellings. 

The first settlement was made near Darien City by Orange Car- 
ter, from Vermont, in 1803. Isaac Chaddock, from Vermont, 
settled near Darien City in 1804. 

The first birth was that of Harriet Carter, in 1805. Stephen 
Parker kept the first inn, in 1808, at Dai'ien City, and Stephen 
King, the first store, at Darien Center, in 1815. The first saw mill 
was erected by Amos Humphrey, in 1809, on Eleven Mile Creek. 

The population in 1865 was 2,168, and the area is 30,405 acres. 

The town contains fourteen school districts, employing the same 
number of teachers. The number of the school population is 788 ; 
the number attending school, 666 ; the average attendance, 323, 
and the amount expended for school purposes during the year end- 
ing September 30, 1868, was 13,222.73. 



JSiJBJL was formed from Batavia, March 14, 1820. Oakfield 
was taken off in 1842. It is the central town in the north border 
of the County. The surface is level or undulating. Oak Orchard 
Creek is the principal stream. It enters the town near the north- 
west corner and flows north-east, through the center of the town, 
to the north-east corner, then flows west, through the north part, 
into Oakfield. The Tonawanda Swamp occupies the north part of 
the town. Bigelow and Spring Creeks flow across the south-east 
corner. The soil is a fertile, sandy, gravelly and clayey loam. 

Pine Hill, (Elba p. o.) near the center of the town, contains three 
churches, viz., Methodist, Congregationalist and Baptist ; a hotel, 
two stores, two shoe manufactories, a wagon shop, two blacksmith 
shops, two harness shops, a tailor shop and about fifty dwellings. 
A Friends' meeting house is located about a mile north of Pine 
Hill. 



OAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 91 

Uast Mba (p. o.) is a hamlet, containing a Methodist church, two 
woolen mills, two grist mills and a saw mill. 

Daw's Corners^ in the south part, and 

Langtori's Corners., a little north of the center, are hamlets. 

The first settlement was made at Daw's Corners in 1801, by 
Samuel and Amos Ranger, from Vermont. Samuel Clark, from 
Mass., and his son Samuel, settled in 1802, and Samuel Hall, from 
Seneca Co., and John Young, came soon after, and located near 
Pine Hill. 

Patrick O'Fling was another of the early settlers of Elba. In 
1813 he and three sons and a son-in-law enlisted in the army. At 
Fort George, in 1813, Gen. Dearborn's attention was called to the 
soldierly bearing of the old gentleman and asked him where he had 
seen service. He replied, " in the Revolution under Captain Dear- 
born." A recognition followed and Gen. Dearborn took so much 
interest in the family that he used his influence to obtain Lieuten- 
ant's commissions for two of the sons and another was admitted as 
a cadet at West Point. One of the sons was killed in the sortie at 
Fort Erie. ^ 

The first birth was that of Betsey White, in 1802, and the first 
death that of David Kingsley, in 1804. Mason Turner taught the 
first school, near the center, in 1811. Stephen Harmon kept the 
first inn, in 1815, and Samuel Lane the first store, at Pine Hill, in 
1819. Horace Gibbs erected the first saw mill, on a branch of 
Spring Creek, in the east part of the town, in 1810, and Comfort 
Smith erected the first grist-mill, on the same stream, in 1815. 

In Turner's Pioneer History we find the following reminiscence 
of pioneer life by the widow of John Young : 

" My husband having the year before been out and purchased his 
land upon the Holland Purchase, in the fall of 1804 we started 
from our home in Virginia, on horseback, for our new location. — 
We came through Maryland, crossing the Susquehanna at Milton, 
thence via Tioga Point and the usual route. In crossing the Alle- 
gany Mountains night came upon us, the horses became frightened 
by wild beasts and refused to proceed. We wrapped ourselves in 
our cloaks and horse blankets and attempted to get some rest, but 
had a disturbed night of it. Panthers came near us, often giving 
terrific screams ; the frightened horses snorted and stamped upon 
the rocks. Taking an early start in the morning, we soon came to 
a settler's house and were informed that we had stopped in a com- 
mon resort of the panther. Arriving at our destination, a family 
by the name of Clark had preceded us in the neighborhood. My- 
self and husband and the family named were the first settlers on 
the #ak Orchard Road, or in fact north of Batavia. Mr. Clark was 
kind enough to give us a shelter for a few days until jny husband 



92 OAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 

built a shanty. It was about ten feet square, flat roofed, covered 
with split ash shingles ; the floor was made of the halves of split 
basswood ; no chimney ; a blanket answered the purpose of a door 
for awhile until my husband got time to make a door of split 
plank. We needed no window, the light came in where the smoke 
went out. So much for the shanty, and now for the furniture. — 
For chairs we had benches made by splitting logs and setting the 
sections upon legs. A bedstead was made by boring holes in the 
side of the shanty and inserting pieces of timber which rested upon 
two upright posts in front ; a side piece completed the structure. 
Peeled basswood bark answered the place of a cord. We of course 
had brought no bed with us on horseback, so one had to be pro- 
cured. We bought a cotton bag of Mr. Brisbane, and stuffing it 
with cat-tail, it was far better than no bed. Buying a -little iron- 
ware, crockery, and a few knives and forks, we were soon under 
way, house or shanty keeping. We got our flour and meal the 
first year at Caledonia. The second year we were in, I had an 
attack of the fever and ague which confined me for nearly a year. 
That year my husband cleared four acres, besides taking care of 
me and doing the cooking. It was no uncommon thing in the first 
years of settlement for women in child-birth to be deprived of the 
aid of a physician, and often the attendance of their own sex had to 
be dispensed with. Mr. Young died in 1836." 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,044, and its area is 
22,631 acres. 

There are 9 school districts, employing 10 teachers. The num- 
ber of the school population is 600 ; the number attending school 
446 ; the average attendance 210, and the amount expended for 
school purposes during the year ending September 30th, 1868, was 
$2,936.38. 

JJJEItOY was formed from Ca,ledonia (Livingston Co.) as 
" Bellona," June 8, 1812. It received its present name April 6, 
1813, in honor of Herman LeRoy, one of the original purchasers 
of the " Triangle Tract," A part of Stafford was taken off" in 1820 
and a part of Pavilion in 1842. It is the central town on the east 
border of the County. The surface is level or gently undulating. 
A limestone ridge, from 40 to 100 feet high, extends through the 
north part of the town. Oatka Creek, the principal stream, enters 
the town near the south-west corner and flows north-east to a point 
a little north of the center, then turns and flows in a south-easterly 
direction, leaving the town near the center of the east border. The 
creek flows over the limestone' ridge in a beautiful cascade ninety 
feet in hight. When the water is low it disappears in the bed of 
the stream about two miles above the falls, passes through a subter- 
ranean channel and appears again below the falls. The soil gener- 



GAZETTEER OF TOWN'S. 93 

ally is a sandy and gravelly loam. Gypsum and Onondaga lime- 
stone, for building purposes, are obtained at various points in the 
town. In the east part, south of Oatka Creek, is an extensive tract 
of oak openings ; it is very stony and hard to cultivate. 

LeRoy, (p. v.) situated on the Oatka Creek, was incorporated 
May 5th, 1834. It contains seven churches, viz., Methodist, 
Baptist, Episcopal, Presbyterian, Congregationalist, Roman Cath- 
olic and Universalist ; the Ingham University, Academic Institute, a 
newspaper office, two banks, two flouring mills, a tannery and 
several other manufactories, a good number of hotels and stores, 
and about 3,000 inhabitants. The Canandaigua & Niagara Falls 
R. R. and the Buffalo, N. Y. & Erie R. R. extend through the 
village. The streets are bordered by beautiful rows of shade trees 
and the plank side w^alks are giving way to substantial flag stone. 
The educational facilities of the place, added to the other attrac- 
tions, render it one of the most desirable residences in Western 
New York. 

The LeRoy Flouring Mills have a capacity of about 150 barrels 
per day. 

The LeHoy Malt Souses consist of three stone buildings, 300 by 
40 feet, with a capacity of 100,000 bushels during the season. 
These buildings were erected by Hon. A. S. Upham in 1853-4, for 
the manufacture of cars for the N. Y. C. R. R. In 1857 the Com- 
pany withdrew their patronage and the buildings were unoccupied 
until 1863, when they were converted into malt houses and have 
been used for that purpose since. 

The Genesee Co. Paper Mill is located about half a mile north of 
the railroad depot. It was formerly a flouring mill, but in 1868 
was converted into a mill for the manufacture of all kinds of wrap- 
ping paper. 

Ingham University, for young ladies, is located at this place. 
The Institution was founded by Misses Marietta and Emily E. In- 
gham, from Saybrook, Conn., in the year 1835. After several 
years of marked growth and prosperity, under their private man- 
agement, for the purpose of securing it as a permanent public in- 
stitution, devoted to the Christian education of young ladies, the 
property to the value of more than $20,000 was donated to the Sy- 
nod of Genesee, upon the condition that a full collegiate course 
-should be established and a permanent fund raised for its support. 
The Institution was chartered with University privileges and pow- 
ers in 1857. For several years thereafter Rev. Samuel Hanson 
Cox, D. D., presided over its interests as its first Chancellor, and 
vigorously exerted himself to make it the model Institution of the 
State for the complete training of woman for her preeminent du- 
ties and responsibilities in the world. Col. Phineas Staunton, the 



94 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 

husband of the younger of the founders, was its first Vice Chancel- 
lor, and he continued an earnest and effective laborer for its in- 
terests until his decease in 1867. A distinguished artist himself, 
he elevated the Art Department to a high rank ; and the genius 
with which he wrought has become a permanent inspiration to 
move the Department still forward in the direction of the beautiful, 
the true and the good. The School of Art continues to furnish un- 
usual facilities in all the departments of drawing, painting and de- 
sign, and attracts hither many pupils who enjoy the advantages of 
a gallery of many pictures of rare merit, valued at not less than 
120,000. The Institution has adopted three courses of study 
adapted to the wants of different classes of pupils. Special atten- 
tion is given to the Department of Vocal and Instrumental Music. 
The libraries and cabinet are ample to supply the wants of the 
students. The Institution has a valuable museum of 700 rare birds 
and a great variety of curious and instructive specimens from South 
America and otner parts of the world. There are two literary so- 
cieties with their libraries and pleasantly furnished rooms. It is in 
contemplation to erect a fire proof building for an art gallery, that 
the valuable collection of works of art may be placed in a position 
where their merits may be more conspicuous and at the same time 
be less exposed than now to the casualties of fire. The people of 
LeRoy can well afford to bear the expense of a suitable building 
for the sake of preserving so valuable a collection in their village. 
The officers of the University are : Rev. Samuel D. Burchard, D. 
D., Chancellor and President of the Board of Councilors ; Mrs. E. 
E. Ingham Staunton, Vice Chancellor and Treasurer ; Rev. W. L. 
Parsons, D. D., Secretary and Assistant Treasurer. The Faculty 
consists of twelve professors and teachers. All needed information 
is contained in the catalogue which will be sent on application to 
the Secretary. 

The LeRoy Academic Institute, boarding and day school, (Eng- 
lish and classical) for both sexes, was incorporated at the beginning 
of the year 1864, the first term of instruction commencing January 
5th. The establishment of this Institution was the result of an ef- 
fort to secure a sounder and more practical education for the youth 
of the town and vicinity than they had before enjoyed. Originating 
with a few earnest citizens, the movement soon spread, meeting 
with such encouragement that before many months it assumed defi- 
nite form and respectable proportions, the school commencing with 
a full corps of professional teachers and about one hundred pupils. 
It rapidly grew into favor in the community, soon doubling its at- 
tendance and requiring ample accommodations. These were 
promptly furnished by subscriptions to its stock from the friends 
of education throughout a somewhat extended section, the town it- 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 95 

self, in recognition of the high character of the school, appropriating, 
by a decisive vote, 110,000 for the purpose. Thus placed on a 
permanent footing, it is now in a very flourishing condition. Its 
property is valued at over 135,000 ; it enjoys a central and beauti- 
ful location, occupies a new and commodious building, and has a 
well conducted boarding house under the oversight of the Principal. 
The pupils, whose ages range from 8 to 25, are divided into four 
grades ; the course of study is full and thorough, embracing the 
English language and literature, mathematics, natural and mental 
science, Latin and Greek, French and German, together with draw- 
ing and vocal and instrumental music; the discipline is strict, 
though the end in view is to teach the pupils self-government. The 
Principal, Mr. E. H. Russell, has been in the school from its com- 
mencement, with a brief interval of absence, and has the assistance 
of five experienced teachers. Mr. Chauncey L. Olmsted is Presi- 
dent of the Board of Trustees, and Lucius N. Bangs, Esq., Secre- 
tary. 

The first settlement of this town was commenced in 1797, by 
Charles Wilbur, about a mile east of the village. He opened an 
inn here and the next year sold out to Capt, John Ganson, who re- 
moved with his family, among whom were three sons, John, James 
and Benjamin. The place was called " Ganson's Settlement," and 
the hotel was for many years considered the best on the Albany 

and BufTalo Road. Joseph Hewitt, Samuel Davis, Scofield 

and Jesse Beach came in about the same time. Scofield was the 
pioneer shoe maker and Beach the first blacksmith. They settled 
near the present residence of Dr. Sheldon. Cyrus Douglass lo- 
cated on the west side of Mad Creek, and Amaziah Stoughton on the 
east side. Eriend Hail settled opposite the stone school house. 
Gilbert Hall, from Bloomfield, came in in 1799 ; he had an unfin- 
ished house on the Phelps farm. Daniel Davis and Philemon 

Nettleton located on the farm now owned by Andross. 

Capt. Jotham Curtis, from Albany Co., settled on the farm now 
ov/ned by S. L. Dix, and Gardner Carver settled the same year. 

The first marriages were in the fall of 1800, when Daniel Davis 
and Naomi Le Barron, and Gardner Carver and Lydia Davis were 
married. The first house, erected on the place now owned by Dr. 
Sheldon, was built by Hinds Chamberlain, who opened an inn 
about Christmas, 1799, and in 1801 sold out to Asher Bates, of 
Canandaigua, who kept a public house for several years. James 
Fox and Abel Nettleton came in in 1802, and James Davis, Jr., 
in 1803. In 1801 Richard M. Stoddard became the agent for the 
Triangle Tract, and Dudley Saltonstall became associated with 
him in the purchase of 500 acres, embracing most of the village 
site. Saltonstall soon after sold his interest to Ezra Piatt, of Can- 
andaigua, who came here in 1802. Richard Waite, from Bloom- 



96 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 

field, came about the same time. Thaddeus Keyes was the first 
tanner in the town. In 1801 a bridge was built over Oatka Creek, 
where the present Main street bridge is. John Ganson, Charles 
Wilbur and Jotham Curtis were the commissioners to build the 
bridge, and James Ganson the builder. A shanty was built on 
the east side of the creek to accommodate the workmen. It re- 
quired five days to raise the frame work of the bridge. Mr. Stod- 
dard erected a land office, and subsequently a house, on the site of 
the Eagle Hotel, and opened an inn. In 1803 Ezra Piatt built a 
framed house on the corner of Main and Church streets, and in 
1804 S. A. Wolcott built a small framed house on the site of the 
University. The first grist mill was built in 1803, by Stoddard 
and Piatt, on the site of the LeRoy Mills. Previous to this the in- 
habitants were coirxpelled to go to the Genesee River for their mill- 
ing. Solomon Bunnell, from Grand Isle, in Lake Champlain, was 
the millwright, and James Austin the first miller. Doctor Wil- 
liam Coe was the first physician, in 1803 ; Dr. Fitch came in 1808. 

Dr. William Sheldon came from Bennington Co. Vt., in 1810. 
He informed the writer that he came on horseback with his saddle- 
bags and a small quantity of medicine, a lancet and an instrument 
for extracting teeth. He was seeking an eligible site to locate for 
the practice of his profession. His money was nearly exhausted 
when he arrived at " Ganson's," where he put up, turned his horse 
out to grass, made a supper of bread and milk and retired not 
knowing how he was to raise the money to pay his bill in the morn- 
ing. Fortunately for him, Mrs. Ganson had an attack of colic in 
the night, and as there was no other physician in the place, Dr. 
Sheldon was called on to prescribe. A dose of calomel and jalap 
restored the good lady so that she resumed her duties in the morn- 
ing. This professional call of course paid his bill and served as an 
introduction, and he was invited to settle as there was a great deal 
of sickness and no physician in the place. He accepted the invita- 
tion and for many years enjoyed an extensive practice. During 
the war of 1812-15, he was the captain of a military company and 
served his country during the greater part of the war. He partici- 
pated in seven battles, was taken prisoner at Black Rock, and car- 
ried to Montreal, where he remained until he was discharged in 
May, 1814. He was afterwards Sheriff of the County and filled 
other positions of responsibility. He is now hale and hearty, and 
though over eighty years old, Ipoks as though he was good for 
another score of years. He receives a pension of $20 per month 
for services rendered to his country. 

Uni Hurlbert, one of the oldest residents of the village, came 
here in 1819 and engaged in farming and brickmaking, which he 
con tingled for forty -nine years. He made the brick for the first 
buildings in the village constructed of that material, some of which 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 97 



are still standing, among them the Methodist church, Eagle Hotel 
and other public and private buildings. He is now in the 84th 
year of his age. 

In 1801 a log school house was erected opposite the present resi- 
dence of Dr. Sheldon, the school was taught by Miss Luseba Scott. 
In 1802 Phebe Bates taught the school, and in 1803 Mrs. Stephen 
Wolcott. In 1804 Mrs. Wolcott taught the first school in the vil- 
lage. The first framed school house in the town was erected a lit- 
tle east of the log one in 1804. It was erected by a stocl^ compa- 
ny ; the shares were four dollars each. The largest purchaser took 
four shares and the smallest half a share. The number of stock 
holders was thirty. The bachelors manifested their interest in the 
education of the rising generation, by taking one share each. The 
first teacher to occupy this building was Pomeroy, from Al- 
bany. The first school house in the village was erected in 1810. 
A singing school was taught in 1808 and the first tune learned was 
Concord. The first military training west of the Genesee Eiver, 
was at Ganson's in 1801. J. Hewitt was captain ; Daniel Davis, 
Lieutenant, and J. Ganson, Ensign; there were ten privates. 
Phineas P. Bates cari-ied the mail from Canandaigua to Fort Niag- 
ara in 1800. A few copies of the Ontario Gazette and Genesee 
Advertiser were left at LeKoy, but the mail was not very exten- 
sive. 

Among the early settlers not already mentioned were E. Smith, 
J. Blodgett, J. Haskell, R. Nesbit, Jacob McCollum, David Scott, 
Philo Pierson, Gideon Fordham and Alexander McPherson. Thom- 
as Tufts, agent of the Cragie Tract, came in 1810. The first store 
was kept by George A. Tiffany in 1806, though previous to this 
Mr. Stoddard used to keep a few goods in his Land Office. J. An- 
nin and H. Johnson were early merchants. Levi Fordham erected 
the first clothing works in 1811. The first death was that of an 
immigrant, at the house of Captain Curtis ; S. B. Wally was the 
first settler who died. They were both buried in the same lot, on 
Mr. Curtis' farm. 

The first Town Meeting was held in 1813. Thomas Tufts was 
chosen Town Clerk, and Dr. Wm. Sheldon, Supervisor. The oth- 
er town officers were David LeBarron, Philo Pierson, Benj. Gan- 
son, Asa Buell, Salmon Turrell, David Biddlecum, Plarvey Prin- 
dle, R. Waite, L. Fowler, G. Newell, G. Terry, A. Hascall, J. 
Hascall. 

The first religious services were held in barns and school 
houses. In the summer of 1800 Rev. David Perry, a missionary 
from Massachusetts, visited the town and preached. Hotchkin in 
his History says : " He probably preached the first sermon ever 
delivered in the place. The settlement at that time consisted of 
about sixteen or eighteen families, and was the raost western set- 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 



tlement in the State of New York," In 1802 Eev. Davenport 
Phelps, of the Episcopal Church, held services in the village. The 
place was visited by missionaries occasionally, previous to 1812, 
when a Congregational Church was organized and soon after be- 
came connected with the Presbytery. Rev. David Fuller was the 
first resident clergyman. The present church edifice was erected 
in 1825. As early as 1807, Rev. Cyrus Story, a local preacher of 
the M. E. Church, visited the town and preached. The writer has 
not been able to give the date of the formation of the first class, 
but the town was visited by itinerants for several years previous 
to the organization of a Church. The church edifice was erected in 
1828. In 1806 Elder Peck, of the Baptist Church, preached in Le- 
Roy, and the Rev. Donald Mann often preached, walking from his 
farm in Caledonia and returning the same day, making twenty-two 
miles travel. 

The Baptist Church was organized in 1819, and united with the 
Association in October, 1820, having at that time a membership of 
43. The first delegates to the Association were Elder E. M. Spen- 
cer, Deacon H. Chamberlain and T. Drake. Deacon Chamberlain 
served the church for fifteen years, when he resigned his office. He 
died in 1848 at the age of 83 years. His wife was the first mem- 
ber of the Church baptized in LeRoy . The present house of worship 
was commenced in 1823 and completed in 1834. It was subse- 
quently removed from the eastern extremity of the village to its 
present location. In 1829 Elder N. Willey became the pastor. 
May 2d, 1840, the Church passed a resolution of dis-fellowship for 
those who use or traffic in intoxicating liquors as a beverage. The 
parsonage was erected about the year 1854, at a cost of 11,800. 
The whole number baptized during the last thirty -one years is 335 ; 
the present number of members is 250. W. F. Basten is the 
present pastor. 

St. Marie's Church (Epis.) was organized in 1817 by Rev. 
Samuel Johnson. Timothy Hatch and Hugh Murphy were the 
wardens ; Abel Noyes, Solomon Root, George A. Tiffany, Ezra 
Piatt, Thaddeus Stanley, Elisha Stanley, Manly Colton and Gra- 
ham Newell, vestrymen. The present officers are Elisha Stanley, 
who has been a warden over 40 years, and Albert Hill, junior war- 
den; F. C. Lathrop, M. F. Bixby, A. F. Bartow, A. O. Comstock, 
C. F. Bissell, Wm. Lampson, W. D. Olmsted and J. W. Shedd, 
vestrymen ; E. H. Martin, clerk. The church was commenced in 
1826 and completed the next year. Rev. Seth W. Beardsley was 
the first rector to occupy it. During the three years of his minis- 
try thirty were baptized and twenty confirmed. Herman LeRoy 
donated the site of the church and $1,000 towards its erection, and 
Jacob LeRoy gave 11,500, to be invested for the benefit of the 
rector. On the 24th of April, 1869, the corner stone of a new 



GAZETTEER OE TOWNS. 99 

stone church was laid with appropriate ceremonies by the Right 
Rev. A. Cleveland Cox, D. D., Bishop of the Diocese of Western 
New York. The church is of stone and under contract to be finish- 
ed November 1st, at a cost of $25,000. Rev. J. H. Waterbury is 
the present rector. 

The Universalist Society of LeRoy was organized in July, 1859, 
under the ministry of Rev. C. Cravens. Services were held in 
Starr Hall at first, and measures were immediately taken to erect 
a church edifice, which was completed and dedicated in April, 1860. 
The dedicatory sermon was preached by the pastor, Rev. C. 
Cravens. The house is a substantial brick structure, 44 by 60 
feet, and contains 60 pews. The original cost of lot and edifice 
was $5,000, valued at present at $12,000. In the summer of 1861 
Rev. r, E. Hicks was called to the pastoral charge of the Society. 
In 1863 Rev. C. Cravens again became the pastor and continued 
until the spring of 1867, when Rev, C. H. Dutton, the present pas- 
tor, accepted the position. 

Mr. R. M. Stoddard's first residence at LeRoy, was a log house 
on the banks of the creek. During the first winter he was engaged 
in tending the saw mill one night, when a party of intoxicated In- 
dians came into the kitchen, built a fire and commenced making a 
pow-wow, as if they were masters of the premises. Mrs. Stod- 
dard was abed in another room, and on learning the state of affairs, 
put a little girl out of the window and sent her to the mill to notify 
Mr. Stoddard. The Indians attacked him as he' came into the 
house and a severe fight ensued, but Mr. S. came off victorious, ex- 
pelling the savages from his dwelling. The Indians had. several 
camps in the vicinity of Leroy, where ' they were accustomed to 
resort for hunting. They were generally peaceable, and had great 
respect for Mr. S., who was often consulted by them. It is related 
that on one occasion when Mr. Stoddard's whole family were sick 
with a prevailing influenza, a party of Indians and Squaws came to 
his house and gave them an " Indian sweat," which greatly mitigat- 
ed the disease. They dug holes in the earth, put in hot stones and 
then poured water on them, placing the patients under the influence 
of the hot steam, covering them with blankets and giving them hot 
drinks. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 4,304; its area is 26,-

100 GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 

received its name from the fact that the lands of the town were 
chiefly " Oak Openings." It lies on the north border of the County, 
west of the center. The surface is level or gently undulating. Oak 
Orchard Creek, the principal stream, flows westerly through the 
north part of the town. A marsh, forming a part of the Tonawan- 
da Swamp, extends along its course. The soil is a sandy and 
gravelly loam, underlaid by clay. Salt springs, from which salt 
Avas formerly manufactured, are found near the center of the town. 
In the west part of the town is a large plaster bed, one of the finest 
in the State. It extends from the west border of the town, east, 
about two miles, and is half a mile in width. 

Cary, (Oakfield p. o.) named in honor of Col. Alfred Cary, was 
incorporated in July, 1858. It lies a little south of the center and 
six miles north-west of Batavia, and contains four churches, viz., 
Presbyterian, Episcopal, Methodist Episcopal and Free Methodist ; 
Cary Collegiate Institute, a hotel, five stores, a foundry, a wheel 
rake manufactory, a grist and plaster mill, several mechanic shops 
and about 600 inhabitants. 

Cary Collegiate Institute was founded in 1 840, chiefly through the 
liberality of Col. Alfred Cary, a resident of the town. The build- 
ings are of stone. The apparatus is ample for illustrating the prin- 
ciples of the natural sciences. There is also a fine library to 
which the students have access. Col. Cary endowed the Institution 
with about $2<0,000. In 1856, by act of the Trustees, the Institu- 
tion was placed under the control of the Protestant Episcopal 
Church. The number of students of both sexes in attendance dur- 
ing the last year was 175.

Most of the town was an Indian Reservation, and not sold until 
after 1832. The settlement was commenced in 1801 by Erastus 
Wolcott, Gideon Dunham and Christopher Kenyon. Mr. Dunham 
was from Livingston County, and located on Section 5 of the Hol- 
land Purchase. Peter Lewis, from Vermont, settled on the same 
Section about the same time. Elijah Blodgett, formerly from Ver- 
mont, removed from Ontario County to Oakfield in 1807, and set- 
tled at Mechanicsville. George W., John and Jeremiah H. Gard- 
ner settled in the town in 1811. Wm. McCrellis, from Madison 
County, settled on lot 10, Section 5, in 1810; Aaron White on 

Section 6, in 1806. Calvin Nobles, John Orr and Terrill 

were among the other early settlers. George Driggs, from Con- 



GA ZETTEER OF TO WNS. 101 

nectieut, was one of the first settlers on the north line of the Reser- 
vation, in 1811. Mr. Driggs cut the Lewiston road through from 
Alabama to Walsworth's tavern. Othniel Brown, from Rhode Is- 
land, settled on Section 6 of the Holland Purchase, in 1816, and 
Laurens Armstrong and Harvey Hubbell, from Connecticut, were 
also early settlers. 

The first birth in the town was that of Calvin Nobles, son of 

Russell Nobles, in 1806. Gideon Dunham and Davis were 

early hotel keepers. The first mills were erected by Christopher 
Kenyon in 1811. The first store was kept by Col. Gary, at Cary- 
ville, in 1833. Othniel Brown commenced wool carding and cloth 
dressing in 1829, and, about 1835, erected a woolen factory which 
continued in operation until 1848. 

About a mile west of Cary are the remains of an old fortifica- 
tion, known as the Old Fort, consisting of a ditch and breastworks, 
including about ten acres of ground. The ditch is now of "such a 
depth that a person standing in it would be unobserved a short dis- 
tance off. The west side of the Fort is formed by a ravine through 
which flows " Dry Creek," a stream that disappears during the dry 
season. Trees have grown upon the breastworks apparently 200 
or 300 years old. On the west side, leading down to the creek, 
there was a passage for ingress and egress, with the sides built up 
with stones. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 1,511, and its area is 
15,379 acres.

Invites the attention of those afflicted with Cancer, to his mode of treatment, which 
has been practiced tor a number of years with great success. The removal of the 
Tumor is speedily made without the use of the knife in the live tissue, and with but 
little pain. The question of radical cure of Cancer undoubtedly depends upon the time 
of its removal. It should be done before it breaks down by ulceration, and the earlier 
the better. The results of this treatment, which destroys the life of the Tumor before 
its removal, as compared with the use of the knife, will be readily understood in the 
difference of the two modes of removing a locust tree from the soil ; to kill it by gird- 
ling or otherwise, leaving nature to complete the process— or to grub out the live tree, 
leaving many fibres to spring up and grow again. If you have a Cancer, please call 
and see me, or correspond.

AND 



Davison's Thornless Raspberries. 

Waterloo, N. Y., 1869. 

The undersigned who is the one who first introduced the Seneca Easpberry to the pub- 
lic, will now be prepared to furnish No. One First Class Plants, of Senecas and Davi- 
son's Thornless, which are to be the leading Raspberries and should go together. 

The THORNLESS is early, ripens a trifle earlier than the Doolittle ; the SENECA 
ripens about two weeks later than THORNLESS, which makes the season complete in 
the berry line. 

All wishing good, first-class plants of these two valuable berries, can rely on me for 
them, as I will send out no poor plants. 

Send stamp and get my prices, when issued next fall. 

My soil enables me to grow plants equal to any grown in the country, and they are 
pronounced No. One, by reliable dealers. Yours Truly, 

WARREN WIQHT, 

Waterloo, Seneca Co., N. Y, 

P. S.— Write your name very plain, that there may be no mistake, and send early.

PUBLISHEB'S NOTICES. 



Tlie Spirit of the Times, pub- 
lished at Batavia, N. Y., by Henry Todd, 18 
one of the oldest papers in the County, 
having been established in 1819. It is a 
live nevi'spaper and gives its readers the 
fresh thoughts of its editor upon all topics 
of general interest to its readers. For 
doing all kinds of Job work in the best and 
most expeditious manner, it has no supe- 
rior in the County. See advertisement on 
page 200. 

^SFiard's Agricultural Worts, 

Oakfield, Genesee Co., N. Y., are advertised 
on page 190. Machinery has become as 
essential to the farmer as to the manufac- 
turer, and the question, " Shall I buy a ma- 
chine ?" is not asked, but, " Where can I 
get the best?" To the inhabitants of Gen- 
esee Co. Wiard's Works offer superior 
inducements to those who vt^ish for Plows, 
Grain Drills, Cultivators, &c. Mr. W. war- 
rants all machines and sells on reasonable 
terms. 

Elba Mills, advertised on page 196, 
have recently been furnished with the most 
improved machinery, and are now turning 
out choice Family Flour. Mr. Whitney, 
the proprietor, is prompt and reliable and 
will fill all orders at reasonable prices. 
Fanners will find this a good place for cus- 
tom grinding of all kinds. 

Wilson House, Main Street, Bata- 
via, N. Y. This Hotel has just been built 
and fitted up with new furniture through- 
out, and now offers accommodations unsur- 
passed by any Hotel in the County. The 
table is furnished with the best the market 
affords, and with good cooks, he must be 
dainty indeed who cannot satisfy the de- 
mands of appetite at the table. Under the 
management of Mr. H. W. Mosnian, the 
gentlemanly landlord, we predict for the 
House a prosperous career. A free Omni- 
bus conveys passengers to and from all 
trains. We can cordially recommend this 
House to all who have occasion to stop in 
Batavia. See advertisement on colored 
page 135. 

Jatnes Annin, dealer in Watches, 
Jewelry, Silver Plated Ware, Fancy Goods, 
&c., south side of Main St., LeRoy, N. Y., 
advertises on page 208. If your Watch 
needs repairing Annin is the man to do it, 
or, what would suit him better, he will sell 
you a good Gold or Silver Watch on favor- 
able terms. If your Table Cutlery wants 
replenishing, he will sell you a set that 
cannot be beat in Genesee County. If any 
one doubts the statement, let him call and 
see for himself. 

E. li. & Cr, U. Kenyon, dealers in 
Groceries and Provisions, No. 72 Main St., 
Batavia, N. Y., are prepared to supply their 
customers with a choice selection of the 
best goods at the lowest living rates.

of all goods usually found in such a store.

such a store call and see for themselves.

geon, Stafford, Genesee Co., N. Y., pub- 
lishes a card on page 192. The afilicted

their wants. If you must employ a Doctor 
give him a call.

riages and Wagons of all kinds, Corfu, N. 
Y., publishes an advertisement on paue 
193. Mr. Phelps keeps a good assortment 
of his own manufacture and makes to order 
all kinds, from the best materials. All who 
deal with him will find an honest reliable 
man who will use his best endeavors to 
render his work satisfactory. Give him a 
call. 

Hamilton & Palmer, manufac- 
turers of the "Cleansing Soap" and various 
other articles of use for the family and the 
toilet, advertise on page 192. Those who 
deal directly with the manufacturers will 
get the genuine article at a lower rate than 
if purchased of others. Orders addressed 
to East Pembroke, Genesee Co., N. Y., 
will receive prompt attention. See card, 
page 192. 

lugliant University for Young La- 
dies, Le Roy, N. Y., is an old and well 
established institution, whose influence ex- 
tends throughout the country. Mrs. Staun- 
ton, one of the founders, still continues to 
exercise supervision over it, assisted by an 
able corps of teachers. Those who wish to 
send their daughters where they will re- 
ceive thorough instruction in every depart- 
ment, and at the same time be under a kind, 
parental and christian influence, cannot do 
better than send them to this University.

Cure and Tonic Kltters, and 
HoTPe's Concentrated Syrup, are 

prepared under the personal supervision of 
Dr. C. B. Howe, the proprietor, at Seneca 
Falls, N. Y., for ague and fever, and all 
periodic diseases, rheumatism, paralysis, 
etc. The "Ague Cure" has produced won- 
derful cures. The " Syrup," for the blood, 
liver, skin, digestive and uterine organs, 
has cured many cases of scrofula, cancer, 
tumors, goiter, salt rheum, scaldhead, and 
many other diseases too numerous to men- 
tion in this place. See card, page 20. 

Improved Gerard.— Read the ad- 
vertisement headed " The celebrated Oroide 
Watch." The advertisers (Messrs. James 
Gerard & Co.,) are actually selling these 
Watches at twelve dollars, fifteen dollars, 
and twenty dollars each ; and that they 
strictly eesemblb gold we know— that they 
wear like gold, a Iriend of ours, who has 
woEN ONE six months, assurcs us; and 
that they are, therefore, (in the words of 
the advertisement.) "as good as gold, in 
all respects, except intrinsic value," we 
have reason to believe. Every watch is 
GUARANTEED by Special certificate. — Eliza- 
beth (N. J.) Journal. See card, page 20, 
also on map. 

Charles H. Bannister, manufac- 
turer and dealer in Lever Pumps, Duguid's 
Mills, Le Roy, publishes a card on page 156. 
These pumps, for durability and conven- 
ience, are unsurpassed by any of the kind 
in these parts. Give him a call. 

Allen's Corn and Bean Planter, 

advertised on page 172, supplies a want that 
has long been felt by farmers. While we 
have had planters and seed sowers possess- 
ing some merit, they have hitherto all pos- 
sessed some marked defects, to obviate 
which Mr. E. C. Allen, of Le Roy, invented 
his unrivaled machine. While many ma- 
chines work well in theory they fail in 
practice. But this has stood the test of 
trial and stands forth as the best and most 
reliable Planter in the market. Let the far- 
mers try it.

irashing Mae 




A.NI> 




Our Thrashing Machines and Horse Powers are so -well known, and have proved so 
far superior to all others, that we deem it only necessary to mention them. 

Our Clover Machine, commonly known as " Collins & Shattiick's," has proved 
equally superior, and so great is our confidence in it that we warrant it to give satis- 
faction to purchasers. 

The " Farmers' Favorite " Grnin Drill, is the most perfect implement ever offered to 
the Farmers of Western New York. It is the only Drill having separate sets of dis- 
tributors for Coarse and Fine Grain. This feature has proved indispensable to accurate 
sowing. 

We WAEKANT it to BOW Wheat, Rye, Barley, Oats, Com, Peas, or other Grains, evenly 
and in any desired quantity without injuring any seed. If it fails in any respect it may 
be returned and the money paid will be returned. 

We have full sets of patterns and pay special attention to supplying JRepairs for all 
Ilnll Machines in tise, including those made by the late Joseph Hall, Glen & Hall, 
ourselves or others.

Important Knoivledge.— As mu- 
sic ie now an indispensable necessity in 
every household, any reliable information 
is valuable as to the best place to buy mu- 
sical instruments. We have been acquaint- 
ed for years personally with the firm of 
lledington & Howe, and have known of 
their business facilities. We know that no 
House between New York and Chicago can 
compete with them successfully, as their 
facilities are unequaled. In addition to 
the immense capital at their control, they 
have special contracts with several leading 
first-class manufacturers, whereby they buy 
cheaper than any other dealers in the Uni- 
ted States anywhere. Their immense trade 
requires only a small profit on each one of 
their many transactions to ensure them a 
handsome income. Their terms are most 
hif^hly liberal. And another important 
consideration is that their treatment of 
their customers is perfectly honorable, a 
very important matter in the purchase of 
such a complicated affair as a musical in- 
strument. Their recommendation of in- 
struments can be depended on implicitly. — 
This we know from an extensive acquaint- 
ance among hundreds to whom they have 
sold instruments. We advise our readers 
to give them a call, or certainly to write to 
them before deciding on the purchase of a 
Piano Forte, Organ or Melodeon. or any 
musical merchandise. See card on Co. Map. 

"tVarren Wlglit-Propagator and deal- 
er in the celebrated Seneca Black Cap and 
Davison's Thomless Raspberries, Grape 
Vines, Strawberries, and other smallfruits, 
at Waterloo, Seneca Co., publishes a card 
on page 164. His experience in the busi- 
ness IS large, and his soil is excellent, 
probably no better can be found in the 
State for the purpose he uses it. We ad- 
vise our friends to peruse his advertisement 
and purchase their supplies of him. He uses 
great care in packing for shipment, and 
sends out none bat first-class plants. It 
would do no harm to address him for a cir- 
cular, and might be the means of affording 
you an abundance of his delicious fruits. 



Attention is specially directed to the 
large and extensive stock of goods offered 
by 'Wiener &. Palmer, 33 State street, 
Rochester, N. Y. This old established 
House is among the largest in their line in 
this cotmtry. They spare no pains or ex- 
pense to get the latest and most stylish 
patterns of French China, White Granite 
Ware, Kerosene Lamps and Chandeliers, 
Cutlery, Britannia, Silver Plated Ware and 
House Furnishing Goods. They have just 
opened an immense stock of the celebrated 
makes of Haviland's French China, direct 
from Limoges, France, Alcock's "Sydney" 
Pattern of White Granite, Edwards " Por- 
celain De Terre," White Granite. These 
White Granite Goods are the choicest goods 
made, and can hardly be told from French 
China. Their Lamps and Chandeliers, of 
Tucker & Co., and Bradley & Hubbard's 
make, are elegant Bronzed Goods and the 
"Perfection of art." Cutlery in Cocoa 
wood. Ebony, Bone, Ivory and Pearl Han- 
dles, from the best American and English 
manufactories. Britannia and Silver Plated 
Ware, from the "Wilcox" Meriden Brit- 
annia Co., and Rogers Bro's., cannot be 
excelled for beauty and quality. This firm 
also deals in all reliable makes of " Fruit 
Jars," and do an immense business in this 
line from Boston, Mass., to Memphis, Tenn. 
To the trade they guarantee their prices to 
be as low as offered by any responsible 
House in America. We would say to our 
readers, if you would "consult your inter- 
ests," call on Wisner & Palmer before you 
make your purchases. See advertisement 
at bottom of map. 

Cbas. Tremaln & Co., manufac- 
turers of Rag, Book, News, Tea and Wrap- 
ping Paper, at Manlius, publish a card on 
page 188. Publishers and paper dealers 
will find them fair and honorable men to 
purchase from. In the manufacture of 
ftooA an d w«w«, thev use only domestic stock, 
which is conceded to be superior to import- 
ed rags. They employ experienced paper 
makers only, and having improved machin- 
ery, they can insure a superior article in 
all cases.

'JTlie Heynold's Steel Temper- 
ing Works, Reynolds, Barber & Co., 
Proprietors, at Auburn, are largely engaged 
in the manufacture of Reaper and Mower 
Knives, Plane Irons, Chisels &c. The 
process by which they temper steel is a pe- 
culiar one, and as patented by Mr. Rey- 
nolds, is the result of over forty years 
labor. This gentleman always worked on 
the plan that tempering steel was simply 
changing it from a fibrous to a granular 
state. He certainly has succeeded in pro- 
ducing a finer granulation (temper) than 
has ever before been produced. Messrs. 
Reynolds, Barber & Co., control the patents 
for these processes, and are applying them 
successfully in all their manufactures.— 
Their establishment is capable of turning 
out an immense amount of work, yet their 
orders are now, and have been for some 
months, accumulating far in advance of 
their present ability to supply ; a circum- 
stance which they will not long allow to be 
the case. We predict that the time is not 
far distant when all Mower and Reaper 
Factories and farmers will use their im- 
proved sections. See their advertisement 
on page 14, fronting the Introduction. 

Bodge Sc liord, manufacturers of 
Meiodeons and Reed Organs, at Ithaca, 
N. Y., were formerly connected with Syra- 
cuse manufactories. They have since 
moved their business where lumber is 
cheap, and expenses less than in the larger 



cities, like New York, Boston, Albany or 
Syracuse. The styles of their organs are 
particularly their own, possessing all 
modern improvements, and some unknown 
to other manufacturers. They have found 
market for their instruments in every 
county of the State, and in Northern Penn- 
sylvania and New Jersey, and have an in- 
creasing trade with the West, in all of 
which places they are brought into success- 
ful competition with the first Eastern 
manufacturers. They are both practical 
men, and have secured workmen of long 
experience and tried abilities. Situated 
midway between the Erie and N. Y. C. 
railways, they can ship conveniently to all 
parts of the country. See card, page 188.
